Phil Ochs - Changes




It's been a while since I posted up some Phil Ochs so let's dust off Changes. If you don't know Phil's work or life story it's all out there on the internet. Best to listen to the music before reading his life story though, trust me. One little story I came across when looking for this track dates back to a small festival appearance he did back in the 60s. Apparently it was piddling it down and his audience were getting soaked so Phil left the relative comfort of the stage and swapped places with them, playing the rest of the set in the rain whilst they kept dry under the stage's canvas...somehow I can't see many other artists doing that can you?
