11:06 The Folkways Collection

This week the epic Folkways Collection series features Phil Ochs.
For a time, Phil Ochs was considered Bob Dylan's greatest rival for the crown atop the politicised folk music movement of the 1960s.
His life ended in tragedy; his downward spiral as an individual and as an artist coinciding with the increasingly confused and cynical mood of America in the late 60s and early 70s.
This programme examines the legacy of this great singer-songwriter.
