An interview with singer, songwriter and activist Jim Page. Jim Page is a Seatle based singer, songwriter and activist currently touring Ireland. Probably he's best know here for his song "Hiroshima-Nagasaki Russian Roulette" which Christy Moore covered. I talked to him yesterday about songs, politics, Ireland, his experiences at the 1999 demonstration at the fourth ministerial of the WTO in Seatle, and about the prospect of a war against Iraq. Mp3 (7.4Mb) and .wma (2.3Mb) are on the uk site: http://uk.indymedia.org/front.php3?article_id=44696&group=webcast http://uk.indymedia.org/front.php3?article_id=44697&group=webcast This runs about 15 minutes, and includes several songs, including a really good one about Seatle, and a fabulous (and as yet unrecorded) anti-war song about Iraq. Not to advertise or anything, but he plays Whelans in Dublin on Monday (Oct 28), and I'll certainly be there. More Irish dates on his website: http://www.jimpage.net/calendar.htm
