An arrangement of a poem by Alfred Noyes. Phil Ochs was a lead player in the Greenwich Village folk scene of the 1960's as very powerful songwriter and voice.
Sorry, like many of my off-air recordings the beginning is clipped.
I suggest watching the best version http://www.youtube.c om/watch?v=mzAwNZCnb 1E
Breezy, irreverent romp through the 80's with video clips drawn from over a hundred hours of broadcast television. Distorted vision of pop culture and politics during the un-60s decade. Some sections set to music would be early mashups. Video by Paul Dougherty.
Davey and Goliath was a children's television series produced by the Lutheran Church in the 1950s and 1960s and televised widely across the United States, the Caribbean and around the world. (As a youth I enjoyed this show.)

Lloyd in his usual fine form. I fondly remember Lloyd as the zany weatherman at NYC's own WOR Ch9 during the 80s. He's a broadcast original in a sea of blandness and conformity. I'm told that members of the WOR viewing audience loved him or hated him, yeah I'm in the former.
Eggs (1970) by John and Faith Hubley
This film is a fave of mine. Thanatos & eros as a feudin' couple, love it. It gets off to a slow start but hang in there. From The Great American Dream Machine, a very cool 60s style (read free spirit) series on PBS in 1971. In the sub-plots the medical futurism seems very prescient.
"Framed" video portraits of Manhattan (& Brooklyn). Contrasting images are woven into continuity by long dissolves set to an instrumental track by Brian Eno of the same name. Part of the permanent collection at the Museum of Modern Art. Pre-MTV
