Re: RAT Accidental Death--Songs of Anarchy?

["Adam Gertsacov" <kafclown@well.com>]

The one that we usually have sung (at Dell'arte, when we use Italian 
anarchist songs-- is "Avanti Populo")  It's the March of the Red Brigade.

Have you checked the book "Rise Up Singing"  It's a book of folk and protest
songs-- it might have the music for you.  (And then you could get any
musician to play it for you)
