This is a print out order form for a new political song project by Vic Sadot that will be called Broadsides & Retrospectives. Release date would be around October 2004. These are songs that are not likely to be released by your average commercial record company. Although recording and printing professional quality CD’s is an expensive endeavor, more and more artists are going for direct support from the public. We’d like you to listen to some of the songs and read the lyrics. If you don’t have the software to hear them, you can also download that free. See info at the bottom of each song. Then we’d like you to buy a CD.

The lead song will be Mad Cowboy Disease, a hard-hitting broadside against the Bush Administration’s war policies with a hilarious rationale for such hypocritical behavior. Here are a couple sample verses for you:

We don’t know how they caught it, but we have some theories
On how they got infected with “Mad Cowboy Disease”…
It must have been the dinner at the Inauguration Ball
There must have been some Mad Cow on the menu after all…

The symptoms of “Mad Cowboy” can lead to travesties
Like lying just to justify bombing who you please
“Mad Cowboy” can be fatal; it can make you paranoid
It can make you maladjusted, a person to avoid!

The second song will be Are You A Citizen (Or Are You A Slave?). Vic Sadot wrote it with local activist Cindy Hubschmitt. It came out of a conversation that Vic had with a fellow worker who declines to discuss politics because “you can’t change a thing”. Here’s a sample of that song:

Are you a Citizen? Or are you a slave?
In the Land of the Free, and the Home of the Brave!
Well, why do you tell me then that “Nothing can be done”?
If we can’t change a thing, then they’ve already won!

We’d still be a colony if the founders thought that way
We’d have royalty and slavery and debtor prisons today
And women would never have won voting rights
It would be the “dark ages” without doing what’s right!

The CD will have Vic’s unreleased tribute to Phil Ochs, the great folk singer of the 60’s. It was recorded back in 1987 with the Crazy Planet Band. It’s called Broadside Balladeer. Other old songs that Vic has not released that remain unfortunately all too relevant today will finally be released. That’s where a lot of the “retrospective” comes in. Vive Haiti! has become timely again as the current democratically elected President Jean-Bertrand Aristide goes into his second exile now that a second Bush Administration has violated the sovereignty and democracy of the poorest country in the western hemisphere by planning and funding and participating in a coup with the former “terrorists”. He is in South Africa with his family.
