I had forgotten how depressing this song is. Or maybe I just didn't notice it in the 70s.

Although this song was inspired by Kennedy's death, the title no doubt assumes that it has to do with the crucixion of Christ. Therefore, in folk circles it has become standard bill of fare during the Good Friday/Easter period. But it was played a lot also followin the 911 attacks a decade ago this September.

Phil Och's version appeared on "Pleasures Of The Harbor" and is much fuller and more symphonic. This song is arguably his finest composition from a lyrical perspective. Phil's work sometimes fell short of his ambitions, but the structure and images in this song came together almost perfectly. He was working towards a "Mr. Tambourine Man"/"Gates Of Eden" ethos. Jim & Jean's spare, early Simon & Garfunkel type arrangement is very striking and emotive.

This song is more about Kennedy's death but whatever...it's a cry of pain and rage and no one has written anything that comes close. I just saw the documentary There But For Fortune; Jim and Jean are in it. See it or make it happen so you can see it. Extraordinary footage of Phil, of the times, of the music.

Yeah a better version than Phil Ochs. Not one of my fav Phil song. And part is probably Phil was an Atheist Jew and I like to think of him that way. And Phil has done better lyrically in Ringing of Revolution and The Marines Have Landed..

A collection of this album and its sequel are or at least were recently available, originally issued on Collectors' Choice a few years ago. I do love this album and its sequel, not to mention its prequel.

I love this version of "Crucifixion", not only because it's a fine performance, but because it features the person who set Phil Ochs on the road to folk music immortality in the first place. The "Jim" of this duo was Jim Glover, who turned Phil Ochs on to folk music and inspired him to start writing songs when the two of them were students at Ohio State. The first guitar Phil ever owned was the one that he won from Jim after betting that Kennedy would defeat Nixon in 1960.
