Synopsis

Album Description
Protest is the flagship release of an exciting new series of world music recordings from industry leader Ellipsis Arts. In it, a Vietnam-era pacifist warning from Pete Seeger encounters an anti-slavery rumba from Congolese composer Papa Wemba, and a controversial tune by the "Joan Baez of Israel" joins forces with an elegy for an IRA operative. These are accompanied by impassioned anti-war ballads and broadsides from Algeria, Jamaica, Brittany, Argentina, Lebanon, the U.K. and Sub-Saharan Africa.

"Finally something new from Ellipsis Arts!!!! Its about time! This recording has some top notch musicians and really rousing catchy tunes, with causes galore. Even my 11 year old was dancing to it, and my parrot whistled along!"
