• Folksinger, storyteller and activist Utah Phillips (d. 2008) captured live in 1999 as part of a free speech teach-in. The inestimable "golden voice of the great Southwest" delivers 74 minutes of his trademark history, humour and song. A signature performance reminds us we can still be inspired, educated and entertained while we "Don't Mourn, Organise"

• As Pete Seeger said – there is no one like him
