"One Man One Vote" - In 2004 I recorded an original tune called "One Man One Vote" on a cd called "What Are We Fighting For?". I've continued updating it ever since, and recently, I added a whole new bridge to the tune, which really adds a new dimension to the tune. This new version was recorded live with a digital field recorder and one stereo mic. I sang and played acoustic guitar. It's just a simple home sounding but the revision is really worth checking out. Election season is here. Check it out: http://www.robertrossband.com/gallery/content/One%20Man%20One%20Vote.mp3
We're The Ninety-Nine - "We're The Ninety-Nine" is based on the wonderful union song "Which Side Are You On?" Music & original lyrics by Florence Reece in 1931. I wrote a new lyric in 2011 about the Occupy Wall Street movement, and the "too big to fail" banks. I did the vocals & guitar, engineering, and video. This is my first attempt at a video using a montage of photos, graphics, and cartoons that I downloaded from the internet.
