Odetta was a defining voice in American folk and civil rights music. This Vanguard compilation (VCD 43/44), produced by Maynard Solomon and originally released in 1973, draws from her late 1950s and early 1960s recordings. It covers work songs, spirituals, and ballads including "Gallows Pole", "No More Auction Block", and "Sometimes I Feel Like A Motherless Child". Made in Germany CD pressing.
