This album is the first collaborative work by two of America's premier topical songwriters, John McCutcheon and Si Kahn. These two old friends offer insights on family and politics with an amazing breadth of humor and pathos. The original 1986 issue of this album is where modern folksong classics like McCutcheon's "No Mas!" and Kahn's "Government On Horseback" first saw the recorded light of day. On the 1994 CD reissue, each writer has contributed two new cuts, updating and maintaining the topical spirit of the original.

"Kahn and McCutcheon both contribute material, and guest artists like Pete Kennedy and Cathy Fink make this a real treat." âÂÂAcoustic Musician
