Blind Boy Whitehead

Where America Sings the News™

If Phil Ochs had a website its slogan would be, we're sure, "All the News That's Fit to Sing." 

Tom Paxton's slogan could be, "I Read it on the Daily Blog" (although it isn't). 

Pete Seeger might have sung, "If I Had a Web Site." 

The web is remaking not just the music business; it is also changing the way music is made and heard.  This is especialy true of so-called "home made music," a form that includes the topical song.

Were it around today the much-lamented Broadside magazine would feature the music of singer/songwriter Blind Boy Whitehead. 

Let this website stand in Broadside's stead, at least for the Blind Boy's career (such as it is).  Here you will find his songs and his other commentary on today's news.
