Thanks for posting. I love hearing these rare and semi-rare Ochs recordings from the 70's. Does anyone know where I can find the two songs Phil recorded in Africa on YouTube?
I'd love to hear the original demo he cut with Micky Dolenz. There are differing stories about whether Phil or Dolenz sang lead, but it would be interesting to hear either way.
This is awesome. I love the expression in the picture. Ochs is like "What the fuck am I doing, singing a roller derby song????" Shame they rejected this song....it's so much better than the movie it was written for.
Anyone remember Joanie Weston?

Kansas City Bombers was a roller derby team? Did Timothy McVeigh have a dark sense of humor or what?

@gropingwithastoker Thanks. Good to see Phil finally getting some mainstream acknowledgement.

@MrDavidFeldmann Search Phil Ochs Bwatue.
Paul Simon acknowledged Phil in his Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction speech, no doubt in part due to Phil's work in Africa.
