For Chronicling the Times, Rosselson delved into his storied political satirists song catalog to assemble seventeen of his favorite recordings. Featuring English folk luminaries such as Martin Carthy and Billy Bragg, this collection proves that Rosselson, now well into his 80s, has created an oeuvre comparable to other social critics such as Phil Ochs. His song The World Turned Upside Down was taken into the pop charts by Billy Bragg and covered by artists including Dick Gaughan and Chumbawamba. Billy Bragg deftly summed up his career: Leon Rosselson is the embodiment of the original ideals of punk rockusing fearless wit and political integrity to highlight the hypocrisies of those in power.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSong of the Old Communist\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Stand Firm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Across the Hills\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Ballad of a Spycatcher\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Flower Power = Bread\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e She Was Crazy He Was Mad\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Topside Down Party\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Rules of the Game\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Postcards from Cuba\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Bringing the News from Nowhere\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e General Lockjaw Briefs the Troops\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Where Are the Barricades?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Talking Democracy Blues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Wo Sind Die Elefanten?
