"A highly subversive pairing of two of the left's most eloquent songwriters." --Daily Telegraph In this glorious 2 DVD set, Britain's finest living songwriters are captured live (on tour in Berkeley, CA), presenting two nights of their original songs, words, and inimitable performance. Turning Silence into Song (Disc One) showcases a pair of career-spanning "greatest hits," with a suitable sprinkling of new and previously unreleased material. All introduced and contextualized with a large helping of trademark wit and dry irony. The Liberty Tree (Disc Two) tells the story of Tom Paine's extraordinary life, interweaving Paine's own words, from his letters and the pamphlets which made him one of the most influential and dangerous writers of his age, with extracts from newspaper reports, diaries, letters, and other documents of the times. The songs of Robb Johnson and Leon Rosselson add another dimension to the story, reflecting Paine's radical ideas and evaluating them in the context of the 21st century. This unique blend of words and music challenges received opinion in the same way Paine's writings did. Together, herein you'll find over four hours of the finest contemporary songs, stories, humor, and observation from the greatest practitioners of the craft.
