A review written for the Folk & Acoustic Music Exchange
by Mike Jurkovic ([email protected])
Well you won't find anything close to Blowin' In The Wind
or The Times They Are a-Changin' here, but you will find
plenty of awareness and the need for vigilance in these unstable
times.
Produced by Brian Gladstone, Protest Songs For
A Better World is a thirteen-track rally cry anthology
of original protest songs selected from submissions from around our
troubled globe. All the tracks are wake up calls, but my personal
highlights include: Southpaw Jones humorously ominous Protest
Song, Lenny Solomon's evocative Gettysurg, Maria
Dunn's rousing Troublemaker', Joe Dolce's Did You Get
Stupid from Being Ugly (Or Ugly from Being Stupid?) and
Williams & Williams' Between Iraq & A Hard Place.
