 Rambles: Oscar Brand, Pie in the Sky & Other Folk Song Satires
This time out, the spirited guitar and voice of Oscar Brand is ably assisted by the equally spritely banjo and voice of David Sears.
It is followed by Brand's own "Talking Atom," perhaps best known to modern audiences in the version offered by Sam Hinton at the Newport Folk Festivals of the early 1960s.
The sly "Tammany," penned in 1905 by Gus Edwards, provides a decidedly politically incorrect infusion of the unscrupulous day-to-day of NYC politics in the post-Tweed years, and a rather strange turn of the "Song of Hiawatha," prospering neither group in the process.

 Oscar Brand : American Dreamer - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
On this album of original topical songs, Oscar Brand embraces a series of left-wing political stances, though he does so with far more gentility than such peers as Pete Seeger.
But Brand's usual way of approaching these subjects is to be gently chiding or gently mocking.
The result is a listenable, if surprisingly low-key expression of topical views, given the tilt of Brand's politics; rarely has what they used to call protest music sounded so polite.
