American Troubadour is a 1997 British 2-CD set that presented a portrait of singer-songwriter Phil Ochs ' later career, featuring selections from each of the five albums he recorded for A&M Records , from various non-album single sides and from a performance Ochs gave on March 13, 1969, in Vancouver , British Columbia . It is notable for the inclusion of Ochs' post-1970 single sides, otherwise unavailable on compact disc and for the inclusion of a cover of Chuck Berry's "School Days", a previously unavailable outtake from Ochs' infamous March 27, 1970, concert at Carnegie Hall.
