This collection of labor and union songs features significant figures on the 20th century folk scene performing some of the most memorable songs from over a century of struggle, as well as demonstrating the close relationship between the folk and labor movements. Here, personalities like the great singer Paul Robeson, who sings a mighty version of the classic "Joe Hill," Utah Phillips, who performs Joe Hill's own "Preacher and the Slave," and Woody Guthrie, whose "1913 Massacre" is a chilling highlight, stand shoulder to shoulder with the pioneering Almanac Singers and the impassioned Hazel Dickens.   Technical Info Release Date : 05/23/2006 Original Release Date : 2006 Catalog ID : 740166 Label : Smithsonian Folkways Recordings Number of Discs : 1 Studio/Live : Studio Mono/Stereo : Stereo SPAR Code : n/a UPC : 00093074016626
