THE SHARPSVILLE MASSACRE :By John Steele c 1963 by author (Tune: "Streets Of Laredo") ,As I walked out in the hot streets of Sharpsville, Through the hot streets I did walk one day, I spied a young Negro, digging and filling, Digging and filling a grave he did say. I asked him the reason he appeared so troubled, I asked him why his eyes were so dim, His words were whispered as he tried to tell me The grave he was digging his child would lie in. Chorus: So beat the drums slowly And play the fife lowly, Play the dead march for the murdered and gone, A man wants his freedom, He'll die for his freedom, Shot in the back for dOing no wrong. They make us use passes, we're slaves to white classes, The Africaner protects us they say, We toil in his fields and sweat in his factories, He shoots us down when we get in the way. ( CHORUS) The wisa men gathered together in London, Three thousand miles from the blood and the moans, But a stand was not taken to save their brothers, The massacre at Sharpsville has passed una toned.

  • Bob Dylan and the Reimagining of Woody Guthrie (January 1968)
    Woody Guthrie Annual, 4 (2018): Carney, “With Electric Breath” “With Electric Breath”: Bob Dylan and the Reimagining of Woody Guthrie (January 1968) Court Carney In 1956, police in New Jersey apprehended Woody Guthrie on the presumption of vagrancy. Then in his mid-40s, Guthrie would spend the next (and last) eleven years of his life in various hospitals: Greystone Park in New Jersey, Brooklyn State Hospital, and, finally, the Creedmoor Psychiatric Center, where he died. Woody suffered since the late 1940s when the symptoms of Huntington’s disease first appeared—symptoms that were often confused with alcoholism or mental instability. As Guthrie disappeared from public view in the late 1950s, 1,300 miles away, Bob Dylan was in Hibbing, Minnesota, learning to play doo-wop and Little Richard covers. 1 Young Dylan was about to have his career path illuminated after attending one of Buddy Holly’s final shows. By the time Dylan reached New York in 1961, heavily under the influence of Woody’s music, Guthrie had been hospitalized for almost five years and with his motor skills greatly deteriorated. This meeting between the still stylistically unformed Dylan and Woody—far removed from his 1940s heyday—had the makings of myth, regardless of the blurred details. Whatever transpired between them, the pilgrimage to Woody transfixed Dylan, and the young Minnesotan would go on to model his early career on the elder songwriter’s legacy. More than any other of Woody’s acolytes, Dylan grasped the totality of Guthrie’s vision. Beyond mimicry (and Dylan carefully emulated Woody’s accent, mannerisms, and poses), Dylan almost preternaturally understood the larger implication of Guthrie in ways that eluded other singers and writers at the time.2 As his career took off, however, Dylan began to slough off the more obvious Guthrieisms as he moved towards his electric-charged poetry of 1965-1966.

  • An Interview with Fred Hellerman Part II May 26, 2016 in This Interview Fred Is Joined by His Wife, Susan Lardner. Ken Edgar
    An Interview with Fred Hellerman Part II May 26, 2016 In this interview Fred is joined by his wife, Susan Lardner. Ken Edgar: We are now back in Fred Hellerman's living room and we're continuing our conversation with Fred. We are joined today by Susan Lardner, Fred’s wife, who herself has a very interesting background and career. Together they are going to help us remember their lives in Weston, starting in around 1970. Susan, welcome to the show. When we last left our story we had talked about your arrival in Weston and how Harold Leventhal, the Weaver's manager, had purchased a home near Cobb's Mill and was influential in bringing you up here. As a result, you became interested in Weston and eventually bought the house in which we are sitting today. Susan: I checked with one of Harold's daughters and found out that he had bought his house in 1968 and Fred bought this house in 1969. Although Fred had been up here before visiting other people, he had not been in the house purchasing business. Fred Hellerman: Yeah, coming up there for a weekend. I just fell in love with that immediately. It was a very important place for me. Ken: In the summer of 1970, you two were married right here on this property. Fred: From here, yeah, at this house. Susan: Under the tree, by Euclid Shook. [A Weston artist a justice of the peace. –ed.] Ken: The New York Times did a very interesting description of your wedding.

  • 07 – Spinning the Record
    VI. THE STEREO ERA In 1954, a timid and uncertain record industry took the plunge to begin investing heav- ily in stereophonic sound. They were not timid and uncertain because they didn’t know if their system would work – as we have seen, they had already been experimenting with and working the kinks out of stereo sound since 1932 – but because they still weren’t sure how to make a home entertainment system that could play a stereo record. Nevertheless, they all had their various equipment in place, and so that year they began tentatively to make recordings using the new medium. RCA started, gingerly, with “alternate” stereo tapes of monophonic recording sessions. Unfortunately, since they were still uncertain how the results would sound on home audio, they often didn’t mark and/or didn’t file the alternate stereo takes properly. As a result, the stereo versions of Charles Munch’s first stereo recordings – Berlioz’ “Roméo et Juliette” and “Symphonie Fanastique” – disappeared while others, such as Fritz Reiner’s first stereo re- cordings (Strauss’ “Also Sprach Zarathustra” and the Brahms Piano Concerto No. 1 with Ar- thur Rubinstein) disappeared for 20 years. Oddly enough, their prize possession, Toscanini, was not recorded in stereo until his very last NBC Symphony performance, at which he suf- fered a mental lapse while conducting. None of the performances captured on that date were even worth preserving, let alone issuing, and so posterity lost an opportunity to hear his last half-season with NBC in the excellent sound his artistry deserved. Columbia was even less willing to pursue stereo.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Media – Leading Edges, 601.483.9810, [email protected] Performance – MSU Riley Center Box Office, 601.696.2200, [email protected] ‘Lonesome Traveler: The Concert’ Celebrates Folk Music Roots at MSU Riley Center MERIDIAN, MS –“Lonesome Traveler: The Concert,” with featured guest star Peter Yarrow of Peter, Paul and Mary, will take an MSU Riley Center audience on a musical journey down the many streams of American folk music on Saturday, October 13, at 7:30 p.m. The multimedia concert, based on an acclaimed off-Broadway musical, is the second show in the Riley Center’s 2018-2019 Fall/Winter Performing Arts Series. “Lonesome Traveler” celebrates the music of such great folk and folk-rock artists as Woody Guthrie, Lead Belly, Pete Seeger and The Weavers, The Limeliters, Bob Dylan, The Byrds, Crosby, Stills & Nash, Joan Baez, Joni Mitchell and Simon & Garfunkel. It also includes a special tribute to Leonard Cohen. Charismatic young singers and multi-instrumentalists re-create the sounds and rekindle the idealistic spirit of the 1950s and ’60s folk revival. “Paul, Mary and I owed a great debt to the pioneers of folk who came before us,” Yarrow said. “It’s a joy for me to see a new generation carrying forward the traditions of folk music.” Members of every generation can sing along together on such warmly remembered hits as “If I Had a Hammer,” “Puff, the Magic Dragon,” “This Land Is Your Land,” “Blowin’ in the Wind,” “Turn! Turn! Turn!” “The Times They Are a-Changin’” and “Hallelujah.” It’s all folk music – music of the people, ever evolving, connecting us to our past and shaping our future.

  • Woody Guthrie and the Christian Left: Jesus and “Commonism”
    Briley: Woody Guthrie and the the Christian Left Woody Guthrie and the Jesus and “Commonism” Ron Briley ProducedWoody Guthrie, by The March Berkeley 8, 1943, Electronic Courtesy Press, of the 2007 Repository: Library of Congress Prints and Photographs Division. 1 Journal of Texas Music History, Vol. 7 [2007], Iss. 1, Art. 3 Woody Guthrie and the Christian Left: Jesus and “Commonism” Following the re-election of President George W. Bush in 2004, political pundits were quick to credit Christian evangelicals with providing the margin of victory over Democratic challenger John Kerry. An article in The New York Times touted presidential adviser Karl Rove as a genius for focusing the attention of his boss upon such “moral” issues as same-sex marriage and abortion, thereby attracting four million evangelicals to the polls who had sat out the 2000 election.1 The emphasis of the Democratic Party upon such matters as jobs in the economically-depressed state of 9a Ohio apparently was trumped by the emotionally-charged issues of gay marriage and abortion, which evangelicals perceived as more threatening to their way of life than an economy in decline. This reading of the election resulted in a series of jeremiads from the political left bemoaning the influence of Christians upon Christian Left: American politics. In an opinion piece for The New York Times, liberal economist Paul Krugman termed President Bush a radical who “wants to break down barriers between church and state.” In his influential book What’s The Matter with Kansas?, Thomas Frank speculated as to why working-class people in Kansas, a state with a progressive tradition, would allow themselves to be manipulated by evangelists and the Republican Party into voting against their own economic interests.

A string of best-selling albums and frequent television appearances quickly made The Limeliters a household name. http://campaign.r20.constantcontact.com/render?m=1113773831472&ca=0b2f1e83-e20e-4bde-b547-6e2b6cb97a45 1/3 2/12/2019 City of Rancho Mirage Sponsors McCallum Theatre Events for 2019 Season In the ensuing years, the lineup has featured several spectacularly talented new members but The Limeliters have never deviated from the integrity of the fabulous sound that they pioneered.

    BEAR FAMILY RECORDS TEL +49(0)4748 - 82 16 16 • FAX +49(0)4748 - 82 16 20 • E-MAIL [email protected] Troubadours Folk And The Roots Of American Music INFORMATION In the one hundred years that folk music has been recorded in the United States, the tradition has embraced ballads – mostly new, but some transplanted from Europe, political statements, personal introspection, and much more. Now the story is here from the 1920s to the 1970s and beyond in four exclusive 3-CD sets. Through this music, we feel it all from the isolation of early twen- tieth century Appalachia through the economic and political upheavals of the Depression, War, and Civil Rights eras to contem- porary west coast singer-songwriters looking within for inspiration. The story is here: original artists and original versions in stunning sound with detailed notes from folk scholar Dave Samuelson. The first set covers the period from the 1920s through to 1957. All the names you'd expect are here: the Carter Family, Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger, the Weavers, Lead Belly, Cisco Houston, and many, many more. Here are the original versions of songs that have become classics and rallying cries: Wildwood Flower, Midnight Special, Rock Island Line, Wayfaring Stranger, So Long It's Been Good To Know You, This Land Is Your Land, 16 Tons, 900 Miles, Delia, and many, many more. The second set begins with the folk revival that started in the wake of the Kingston Trio's Tom Dooley and continues through the dawn of the singer-songwriter era. It includes early folk revival classics like Walk Right In, Michael, and Green, Green.
