Josh White was undeniably during his lifetime one of the most enigmatic performers of blues and folk music to emerge from the United States. Born on the poor side of the track, White became one of America's most noted black entertainers, breaking through social and cultural barriers, and constantly reinventing himself, so that his career survived the changing musical tastes and trends of five decades. For almost half a century Josh White's musical talents and achievements shone bright like beacons. In the Twenties he was one of the youngest solo black artists in the 'race records' market, during the Thirties he became a major blues star - both on record and in live performances - while in the Forties he worked alongside jazz figures like Billie Holiday and was embraced by a white New York audience. By the Fifties Josh White was also a huge star in Europe - where he re-located after the McCarthy allegations - and then in the Sixties he was warmly embraced by the folk music movement - he was often billed as 'Josh White - The Father of American Folk Music' - and became one of the noted 'protest' singers of the era, attracting such distinguished admirers as Pete Seeger.[DUT]Disc 1Wing Wang Harmonica Blues Black and Evil Blues Double Crossing Woman Blood Red River This Heart Of Mine School Boy Blues Good Woman Blues Milk Cow Blues Paul and Silas Bound in Jail Barbeque Bess Oh Lordy Mama No 2 Silicosis Is Killin' Me Careless Love Jerry Trouble Run, Sinner, Run Billy Boy Liza Jane Baby Baby Hold On Move Into Germany Pretty Flowers In My Backyard No 12 Train Strange Fruit The House Of The Risin' Sun Jelly, JellyDisc 2John Henry Minute Man Lord Randall, My Son I Left a Good Deal In Mobile Watercress Betty and Dupree Sometime Free and Equal Blues The Lass With The Delicate Air The Man Who Couldn't Walk Around The Blind Man Stood On The Road And Cried Wanderings Apples, Peaches and Cherries Lonesome Road Black Gal I Ain't Got Nothing But The Blues You Don't Know My Mind Bonbons, Chocolate and Chewing Gum Come Along,...
