"Remembering Phil Ochs" / at the People's Music Network Convergence Gathering, May 2026

During Memorial Day weekend in 2026 I facilitated a workshop session commemorating the life and music of Phil Ochs. It was a heartfelt session with music and memories. What made the session special was the participation of Sonny Ochs, Phil's sister, who, at the age of 89 is still hosting a radio show and Phil Ochs music nights. The songs and when they appear in this one hour and sixteen minute video are indexed below. I hope you enjoy it. ~ Joel Landy, Songs of Freedom Television - For more Songs of Freedom Television videos, go to www.singfreedom.org For more about the People's Music Network, go to www.peoplesmusic.org - Session Index 0:00:00 Welcome and Introduction 0:01:25 "Remember Me" Joel Landy 0:04:55 Sonny Ochs 0:06:36 "Knock on the Door" David Tarlo 0:10:05 Sonny Ochs 0:13:38 "There But for Fortune" Trevor Tomis 0:18:15 "Power and the Glory" Bruce Pollack Johnson 0:21:15 Phil Ochs quotes 0:24:00 "No More Songs" Steve Suffet 0:27:30 "Changes" Diane Lansing 0:33:30 "Celia" Mark Hecker 0:37:00 "Draft Dodger Rag" Steve Deasey 0:41:30 "I'll Be There" Storm 0:44:50 "Ringing of Revolution" Joel Landy 0:51:45 "If I Knew" Louise 0:55:00 "I Ain't Marching Anymore" Pat Lamanna 0:57:47 Sonny Ochs 1:01:45 Phil Ochs quotes 1:02:07 "Is There Anybody Here?"
