Ochs' "Love Me, I'm A Liberal" still rings true to me. Jello Biafra did an updated version of this song in the '90s.

I just relistened to some Ochs for the first time in many years a few months ago. His "Bound for Glory" is not as good as Dylan's "Song to Woody" (they exist in separate realms) but it's still pretty good. I think Dylan once accused him of being a journalist rather than a folksinger -- and that's also true. But a few of his songs count as news that stays news -- and that is not to be sneezed at too sniffily.
