Opis

John Handcox composed songs and poems that were sung at the Southern Tenant Farmer Union and used to raise spirits as the group struggled for better pay, favorable legislation, and better working conditions in Depression-era Arkansas. In 1937 Handcox made a recording. The songs were so popular that some have become folksongs themselves, recorded by musicians such as Pete Seger and Woody Guthrie. This CD represents the work of John Handcox from the 1937 material as well as more recent material that was recorded by the Smithsonian's Center for Folk Life and Cultural Heritage in the 1980s. It spans Handcox's entire career, but also includes an interview with Joe Glazer recorded at the Library of Congress in 1985.
