A GOOD COPY OF 1960 ISSUE OF SONGS WRITTEN BY MOSES ASCH AND SUNG BY WOODY GUTHRIE. THE LEAFLET/BOOKLET THAT CAME WITH THE RECORD IS PRESENT.
THE CASE OF SACCO AND VANZETTI WAS A MAJOR POINT OF PROTEST IN THE 1920'S. IT INVOLVED A ROBBERY-MURDER AND ESSENTIALLY A RAILROAD VERDICT THAT STILL IS A SUBJECT OF CONTROVERSY AFTER ALMOST 100 YEARS.
MY FATHER, WHO GREW UP IN MILFORD, MASSACHUSETTS AND PLAYED WITH THE SACCO CHILDREN WAS ALWAYS RELUCTANT TO TALK ABOUT THEM. WHEN I WAS WORKING AT A CLUB OUTSIDE OF BOSTON I HEARD ONE PERSON, TALKING ABOUT A HORSE CALLED DANCERS IMAGE, WHICH WAS OWNED BY THE SON OF THE JUDGE IN THE CASE. THIS PERSON SAID THAT HE HOPED THAT THE HORSE WOULD LOSE BECAUSE THE OWNER WAS THE JUDGE'S SON-ALTHOUGH NOT SO DIFFIDENTLY AS THIS DESCRIPTION.
THE JACKET IS SPLIT ACROSS THE TOP OF THE RECORD.
