The Broadside Tapes 1


The Broadside Tapes 1, alternatively known as Broadside Ballads, Vol. 14, was a compilation of demo recordings done by Phil Ochs for Broadside magazine in the early-to-late 1960s. Of the sixteen songs that appeared, ranging from the humorous to the depressing, all were new to listeners. It also included a song about the Profumo affair and it closed with a live cover of The Beatles' "I Should Have Known Better" featuring Eric Andersen on harmony vocals and harmonica.
