Music reviews of We Have Fed You All a Thousand Years
Music Review: The Joe Hill song collection
Rating: 3 Stars
This is mostly a collection of the songs and poetry supposedly written by the legendary I.W.W. martyr Joe Hill. It is interesting more as an historical collection of the earliest songs of the I.W.W union movement than for its musical content. Much of music used in these songs where written by others. Joe Hill would change the original lyrics to promote the I.W.W. and its socialist movement, and call the so-called hated enemy names.
Description of We Have Fed You All a Thousand Years
Like Woody Guthrie before him, Utah Phillips is a folksinger who knows that a song can be a powerful weapon in the politics of class struggle. On this album, he performs songs from the celebrated "Little Red Songbook" of the Industrial Workers of the World union (better known as the Wobblies). First published in 1909, the IWW songbook offered parodies of Salvation Army favorites, plus other well-known tunes which were used as rallying cries in the early days of labor organization, including "Joe Hill," Guthrie's "Union Burying Ground" and Mac McClintock's "Hallelujah, I'm a Bum."This product is manufactured on demand using CD-R recordable media.
