‘This is a beautifully produced book and one which is worthy of the highest praise. The songs should be read by people of all political persuasions and should be heard throughout the land. They are written from the heart and are a passionate commentary on life in the 20th century.’ 
-The Musician, September 1994
‘Possibly the world’s most accomplished mischief maker, his radical songs transfer successfully to the printed page.’ 
-Daily Telegraph, 3 July 1993
‘Plenty of good songs for the questing singer and plenty of food for thought for the casual browser…a collection of good and powerful songs.’ 
-Folk Roots December 1993

    Hello,

    My name is Annelie and I would like to learn and possibly perform Leon Rosselson’s arrangement of Bread and Roses, which I first learned from Pauline Down during a Natural Voice Network workshop some years ago.

    Is it still possible to get a score for this song?

    With thanks,

    Annelie

This is my letter to the Guardian which it refused to publish though it had well over 100 signatories:

"Since Gaza is uninhabitable, because Israel has made it so, and since most of Gaza’s citizens are refugees or the children of refugees, because Israel has made them so, the only just and humane solution is for them to be allowed to return to their homes in what was Palestine until Israel usurped it. Another Great March of Return, only this time without the violence inflicted on the marchers by Israeli snipers."
