Pleasures of the Harbor


 

Pleasures of the Harbor was Phil Ochs' fourth long player, and his first for A&M Records, released in 1967. In stark contrast to his three albums for Elektra Records which had all been basically folk music, Pleasures of the Harbor featured traces of classical, rock and roll, Dixieland jazz and experimental synthesized music crossing with folk, in hopes of producing a "folk-pop" croosover.
