Phil Ochs

There and Now: Live in Vancouver

Not quite there, at all

Review Score: StarStarStarStarStarStarStarStarStarStar (4/10)
Oh dear. A disheartening, disappointing album that should never have been released. Phil Ochs, obviously shattered by the events in Chicago, stumbles through his live show, rambles through his between-songs introductions, rarely making sense, and -- especially on the slower songs -- loses the tune entirely. Saved by a stunning version of "Another Age" that renders this song timeless (someone, quick -- cover that tune!)and an equally brilliant "The World Began in Eden and Ended in Los Angeles", but otherwise his version of "The Scorpio Departs But Never Returns" is distressing, and he absolutely murders "Changes", veering off-tune repeatedly. This could not have been a pretty sight, and Michael Ochs' observations on the concert are far, far off of the mark.
