1974 Phil Ochs clip

By Kenneth Rainey. Filed under: TweedBlog, video.

This is the latest Phil Ochs clip that I’ve ever seen, from April, 1974. Phil was strangled while traveling in Africa the year before, and his voice is noticeably weaker after the attack. He occasionally lapses into a Lou Reed-esque sprechstimme here. In less than two years, he would be dead by his own hand.
