Wow for a song of love and peace this has generated so much hate. I criticize no one who dares to dream of peace. However it is done it is better than hate. Silly humans we really need to evolve past this nasty yours mine ours hatefulness. Tolerance is the only thing that will ensure our survi...

Awesome! Mr G still has it.

How completely charming.

What a brilliant child. Many people much older could not have come up with a more concise description. Most 3 year olds don't think in so organized a manner much less put together such a description.

go you! Dylan took lots of flak for following his own path. I have always admired that independence.

I beg to disagree with you. By far the best Phil Ochs song is crucifixion. There may be more meaningful/political songs but cru will break your heart.

Thank you for this post. Tom Paxton has been one of the greatest for a long time now.

simply means keep it up.

You said it! Others may give up and decide to be too old but me never. I will be going to concerts and festivals when I am wrinkly, twisted and drooling. Watch out for me.

just now ending a sell out tour. Smaller venues generally than in the hey day but Ian and co are still playing the minstrel and thrilling audiences.

crazy man minstrel and musical innovator. Ian Anderson is much less the wild man in his old age but is just finishing a sellout tour and still amazing.

All art adds to the beauty of our world, even drug and liquor fueled 70's acts. I always loved JT and am glad you tube lets me see them again. I am always stunned at the anger and ugliness of some posts herein. What's the point anyway? The freedom to heap abuse on others doesn't necessitate ...

What a voice! I yawn at opera for the most part but found myself fascinated at the poor mug with the awesome voice. Congrats to him.

So Bush claimed we were under attack as the 'brightest beacon of freedom in America' His solution? To remove those freedoms from us, to decimate the bill of rights and put US under the flag of tyranny. Thank you for your activism. America must never cede to the fascists even if they are our o...

Breathtaking in it's beauty and relevance. These ageless words of Dr King should be passed on to every one we know. A reminder of inescapable truths is ever merited. We all must stand up for our principles if peace and honor are ever to be regained.

May the people of our small planet benefit from the goodhearted and the peacemakers. People of worth and with loving hearts put themselves at risk out of hope and sometimes lose those lives. It is up to us to spread the word. Love in the face of hate. Peace in the heart of war. Civility in r...

I am largely ignorant of what goes on Fox so it is shocking to discover how exquisitely they use lies and fear to make their point. I forget too often how ignorance can be manipulated. Objectivly, one might admire how completely they seem to be able to manipulate minds. Realistically, it is sh...

Isufan2a, your discourtesy fails to convince. There will always be, I suppose, those who only feel safe by following along with the party in power. We are only apes after all and feel fear when we are in disagreement with the alpha of the troupe. Those with the ability to be independant and cr...

Yup.

what fun! Perhaps anyone could put wheels all over themselves and do this but he did do it and what fun!

I love illusions

The United States did support Sadddam's rule and fed arms and money to his regime for years. You can find pictures of D Rumsfeld shaking hands with the man and handing him checks. He was the leader who promised to protect us agains the Iranians. Remember the 'hostage crisis' that toppled Jimmy...

Amazing. Horribly amazing. War really is hell.

Haven't you heard...We are all uneducated electronic practically cyborg mo-rons with no concept of the beauty of language...I mean that is why we are listening to some of the most original songwriting in years. Right?
