Just wanted to introduce myself. As of lately, things have been making me return to the comfort (?) of Phil Och's words and songs and love. It's sad that...
Welcome George!! And god bless Phil's soul--28 years ago today he left us (physically). I know exactly what you mean, in the time after 9/11 especially, his ...

Today is the anniversary of Phil's death at his sister's home. Phil killed himself 28 years ago today, April 8, 1976 at the age of 36. I often wonder whether...

Pam----Interesting speculation-- I don't know if we have any way of knowing what efffect ttreatment would have had on him. I, do however, have little doubt,...
I just thought some of you might be interested in e-mailing Phil's sister, Sonny personally. I was very pleasntly surprised to see her address at some Och's ...
I probably won't be saying anything new here, but I do feel the urge to chat. Part of Phil's "timelessness" to me is his "timefullness". When I was 16 I went...
Anyone have any idea why Phil didn't have any vibrato in his voice on his first two albums, and other early recordings, but from in concert on, he had it in...
I forgot to add, as you may or may not know, Sonny travels around the country periodically with a musical ensemble who perform Phil's songs. She'll be glad to...
That's an interesting question re: Phil's vibrato--I'm wracking my brain now , thinking back to those first 2 albums! I may be wrong(not unprecedented) but...
Actually, I think you're right. All the News... and I Ain't Marchin'... don't really have vibrato. I thought he used it in "There but for Fortune" and...

For a while, I've just been watching the messages come into my inbox and reading them to see what people think. Not too normal for me to do, though. I guess...

I think it has more to do with the phrasing of the lyrics. In Phil's later songs he would tend to draw a note out longer and that was where his vibrato would...

We have two teen-age Phil Ochs fans right here. They must marry and produce many nieces and nephews for all the aunts and uncles on this list. No heartbreaks...
