This album is the first collaborative work by two of America's ì premier topical songwriters, John McCutcheon and Si Kahn. These ì two old friends offer insights on family and politics with an ì amazing breadth of humor and pathos. The original 1985 issue of ì this album is where modern folksong classics like McCutcheon's ì 'No Mas!' and Kahn's 'Government On Horseback' first saw the ì recorded light of day. On the 1994 CD reissue, each writer has ì contributed two new cuts, updating and maintaining the topical ì spirit of the original.
