Si Kahn: Doing My Job [Flying Fish, 1982]
Not one of these fifteen skillful pieces of work is narrowly ideological, and several sound like exceptionally useful organizing tools--the three funny ones plus "Detroit December" ("Eight hours a day to draw my pay/And overtime to see me through") and "Go to Work on Monday" (with Old King Brown Lung). But Home's subtlety, originality, and sheer conceptual elegance are missed--only "Five Days a Week" and "Doing My Job" do more than the job. B+
