the Amchitka concert

The story of Greenpeace's maiden voyage to Amchitka has been told many times. What a lot of people don't realize is that it was funded, in part, by a concert featuring Phil Ochs, Joni Mitchell, and James Taylor. That concert, held 16 October 1970, is now available from Greenpeace here.
