Woody Guthrie - Ballads of Sacco and Vanzetti '1960/1996

Tracks list

       Woody Guthrie was one of the twentieth century's greatest poets and
songwriters, and his songs about Sacco and Vanzetti include some of his best
songs. The murder trial of Sacco and Vanzetti was one of this century's most
controversial. Sacco and Vanzetti's story was dramatic; their front-page trial
was filled with dubious procedures; and the years of appeals and their eventual
execution led to protests around the world. These songs, written and recorded
nearly twenty years later, have been carefully remastered from the original
acetate discs and are presented with a previously unpublished letter by Guthrie
to the judge in the case. Produced by Moses Asch. Reissue compiled by Anthony
Seeger and Jeff Place.
