Tom Prasada-Rao,For What It's Worth,Via Folk Now March 2026, Hudson
Harding,2021,Independent,(wr. Stephen Stills, 1966. A hit for his group Buffalo Springfield),
Mike Laureanno,Kiss My Ring,single,2025,Independent,
Windborne,The Terror Time,Of Hard Times & Harmony,2022,Wand'ring
Feet,(written by Ewan MacColl in the 60s about the plight of the traveling people especially at the onset of winter.),

     (Tom's cover seems like an appropriate song to repeat for the biggest
mass protest in our history. As does Mike's satire from last year. I first
heard Ewan MacColl's powerful song played at full intensity by The
Tannahill Weavers at the height of their loud era. It suited the song very
well. Glad that Windborne revived it. Kemp's album has the tough messages
we need. And Patti Smith did not apparently know how much and for long her simple anthem would resonate.)

     (This Roy Book Binder CD is an interview he recorded with Dave Carter
on WETS, Johnson City, TN and released on his label. As she did with so
many songs, Dolores Keane makes Si Khan's great song her own. Bass player
Doug Wray posted this Sloan Wainwright song and it was a good excuse to
pull out her CD. Laurie Lewis has done quite a few terrific side projects
and here is another one, all (but one) songs written by Ken. )
