I discovered you in 65. You led me to playing guitar and to folk songs from all over the world. I remember photographing you from the tv. I still have those photos, and I still play my twelve string: singing songs from here, there and everywhere. The great songs from the mid sixties seem to need being sung and heard now more than ever! I have sung " Turn Turn Turn" in church and people love I. Also I have carried " What's This I Hear" in my heart for decades, and now I can here it free and new, get the lyrics right, stars performing it again. Thanks for your music and for once again being a part of my life. God Bless, David
Another version of this song was taught to us by LAURA WEBER also on public TV in the mid sixties. (God rest her lovely soul) I was eight years old when I learned it and I still play it today at 63. AND now I'm finally learning to play and hopefully remember all the words to "Changes". Wish me luck. Some things worth it take time. Thanks for bringing this video back to us.
Really neat, as are the other videos a few of which I've viewed so far. I wish all NET footage was this well preserved. I'd love to see a complete show. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you, Nokorola! I think it's amazing, too. Did you see the video I did back then called "Vamos al Baile?" It's pretty cool. And "Cripple Creek" too.
Thank you for watching, Ezekiel! I have a lot of recent videos up on RUclips as well. Here's the most recent: ruclips.net/video/fSwPbQE7uBs/видео.html Very different from this 1965 video you like here!
@@ferdinandthecrow OK, Laraine. Sorry for the misspelling and I'll correct it. Laraine's daughter, btw, is Hannah Einbinder, who plays Ava on the HBO show HACKS.
Tracy, that was a fantastic performance, thanks for sharing it with us on youtube. Did you know Phil personally; perhaps have a story to share? All the best..
I met Phil a few times. (Each time I had to 'meet' him again, because he didn't remember me.) In LA at the Troubadour bar I ran into him, and he tried to fix me up with the guy he was sitting with, whose name was Jack. I declined, for some reason, and later, after I saw "Easy Rider," I realized it was Jack Nicholson. I'm not sure if I dodged a bullet or missed an opportunity. Probably the former.
Al - Sorry this took me so long to answer. Two years! Yikes! Yes, I did know Phil and he once tried to fix me up with a guy at the Troubadour bar way back then. The guy was Jack Nicholson, but I hadn't yet seen Easy Rider. I said no. I don't know what I would have done if I had been star struck!
@@tracynewman3256 That's very interesting. My impression of Phil (I'm currently reading Michael Schumacher's biography of him) is that he was rather careless with his personal relationships, but then again, he was on a mission.
@@tracynewman3256 I'm not finished the book yet, but Phil put enormous energy into succeeding in his chosen career. "He was up every day at dawn, sitting with his guitar, working and writing for hours everyday..." (related by a colleague who travelled with him on page 55 of The Life of Phil Ochs). Not much time to attend to the niceties of life, but he seemed well loved anyway.
That's rather nervy of you. You could've said "Nice version, but Phil's is still my favorite." As for passion, she was singing it for kids, not a civil rights match! Kudos to you, Tracy, this IS a pretty tricky one to sing.
I can’t believe this has only a few thousand views. This series is a treasure!
A wonderful song beautifully interpreted by a lovely talented woman.

Qué descubrimiento, estoy fliping con el programa de Tracy Newman. Great!!! :)
Nice resonate voice speaking and singing

I love this song, too! I'm happy it brought back memories for you. - T
My pleasure, Uncle Wiggy! Sorry it took me forever to answer this!
I have a guitar instruction booklet by Laura Weber, published by the station her show was on. Some previous owner gave her a mustache. :-)
She is an excellent guitarist and sings well. I hope Phil Ochs enjoyed this cover.
Really neat, as are the other videos a few of which I've viewed so far. I wish all NET footage was this well preserved. I'd love to see a complete show.
Thanks for sharing!

Beautiful singing!
Nothing changed ( even "Changes")! :)
Congratulation,
Imre
Beautiful song. Thanks for posting it.

I heard you before, Tracy. This is you performing.

Tracy is Laraine Newman's sister. (I spelled her first name wrong initially and corrected it after somebody pointed out).
Laraine??

@@margaretross9150- What is Michael describing as Phil's mission? I'm curious as to how he's putting it. I guess I could read the book.

Wow
You're welcome!!!
Nice version, bit Phil Ochs does it way better, you can hear the passion in his voice.
I agree with you but that didn't stop me from doing it back then. I love the song. Thanks for listening/watching!
I agree, Michael. I did my best here, but found this song very hard to sing at the time. 1965.

I bet Phil liked this version...
