Rather than repeating earlier notes about the need to support this program and WFDU just take a glance below at the SUNDAY SIMCHA playlist--just leave out the slogan and replace it with one of your choice. The note, then, applies to TRADITIONS as well. If you have a better slogan than--- THE TRADITIONALISTS--A NEW PARTY & MEETS ONLY ON WFDU--let's hear about it.
In the playlist you will see a note re: Phil Ochs and checking the blog---The album in question PHIL OCHS GREATEST HITS---50 PHIL OCHS FANS CAN'T BE WRONG has a great story behind it. It is a sarcastic title since all the songs are new ones on that album and he was spoofing those pretentious other artists (I assume one in particular) who released those type of albums and, also, who did have a larger following than him--hence, that self denigrating line about 50 Fans. Great sense of humor and a great talent that left us way to early---it is expressed in Harry Chapin's piece that you see listed.
A few last items---some of the new material you heard today is truly memorable material---with special plaudits to Beth DeSombre. Hopefully, you caught the program and heard the pieces for Black History Month. If not---you know how to access the archives. Lastly--the Polka near the end of the show---hey---we have to have a lead in and the "bubble machine" joke is getting old---hope you got the words on that one---love the punch line.
Some faces to today's voices:
If you did not see them last wknd at Hurdy Gurdy -here is a sampling of that great talent----Brother Sun
Here it is added that this is a brilliant writer and you should see her in performance---and on today's program you may recall all the great talent that joins her on this album---check her out---this is only to introduce her to you:
