Twentyseven years in the making (194067), this tapestry of nearly two hundred American popular and protest songs was created by three giants of performance and musical research: Alan Lomax, indefatigable collector and preserver; Woody Guthrie, performer and prolific balladeer; and Pete Seeger, entertainer and educator who has introduced three generations of Americans to their musical heritage.In his afterword, Pete Seeger recounts the long history of collecting and publishing this anthology of Depressionera, unionhopeful, and New Deal melodies. With characteristic modesty, he tells us whats missing and whats wrong with the collection. But more important, he tells us whats right and why it still matters, noting songs that have become famous the world over: Union Maid, Which Side Are You On?, Worried Man Blues, Midnight Special, and Tom Joad.Now, at the turn of the century, the millennium, whats the future of these songs? he asks. Music is one of the things that will save us. Future songwriters can learn from the honesty, the courage, the simplicity, and the frankness of these hardhitting songs. And not just songwriters. We can all learn.In addition to 123 photographs and 195 songs, this edition features an introductory note by Nora Guthrie, the daughter of Woody Guthrie and overseer of the Woody Guthrie Foundation.
