Everybody's Goin' For The Money

Peter Alsop‘s SONGS TO CHEW ·

2020/06/05

Almost all the songs I perform are songs that I've written, ... but today's song, "Ev'rbody's Goin' For The Money" is by Spider John Koerner. He influenced my style of guitar playing and songwriting. I added this line, ... "So why sing a song about money? Why think about our way of life? Cause it’s time to face that the human race, needs something more than money to survive!" Good song to chew on! Got a new album coming out soon! "Camping With Dads", not 'just for kids'! To pre-order,

Today's "Song to Chew" is the title cut from my DRAW THE LINE album. ~ How do we make a choice about where, ... and when, to actually "draw the line"?

AFL-CIO Love Song

Peter Alsop‘s SONGS TO CHEW ·

2020/04/17

On this week’s SONGS TO CHEW podcast, I’ve got a song I wrote and played at the AFL-CIO’s National Convention in December of 1977. Union membership was diverse, gender and race-wise, ... but union management was mostly all white men. The best way for me to say something about that, was to write a song! So here’s the AFL-CIO LOVE SONG performed live at McCabe’s Guitar Shop a year later. These episodes of my podcast are kind of a “free course on life skills” with music! Get ‘em wherever you

Doin' It For You!

Peter Alsop‘s SONGS TO CHEW ·

2020/03/20

This week’s SONG TO CHEW is one of my earliest feminist songs, “Doin’ It For You”.

Let The Woman In You Come Through

Peter Alsop‘s SONGS TO CHEW ·

2020/03/13

This week’s SONG TO CHEW is “Let The Woman In You Come Through”, one of my classic feminist men’s songs from my 1977 Flying Fish album, ASLEEP AT THE HELM. The song is supportive advice from a man to his friend. When it first came out, we got quite a bit of radio airplay because most people had never heard a man sing about how boys and men, struggle to make sense of the very limited gender-specific ways we were expected to act. “We had to choose between acting like Woody Allen or John

GMO Cafe'

Peter Alsop‘s SONGS TO CHEW ·

2020/02/22

The SONG TO CHEW this week, from my River Of Life album, ... is “GMO Cafe’” ~ When we buy food, we have no way of knowing if the products have GMOs in them or not, because big Ag companies stop laws that require proper labeling! That got me thinking, ... if there’s really no public harm involved in the consumption of GMO foods, ... then why would the big food companies bother to do this?!
