and issue the LP in mono. The ones that originally got away were: 'Ted Mack
Rag', 'Dust My Broom', 'Too Bad' and 'Mumblin' Word'.

the listener to many other blues recordings, including John Hammond's debut
on Vanguard.

Produced by Paul Rothchild
A Job Of Work; A Rumblin' In The Land; When Morning Breaks; Daily News;
What Did You Learn In School Today; The Last Thing On My Mind; Harper; Fare
Thee Well, Cisco; I Can't Help But Wonder Where I'm Bound; High Sheriff
Of Hazard; My Lady's A Wild Flying Dove; Standing On The Edge Of Town; I'm
Bound For The Mountains and The Sea; Goin' To The Zoo; Ramblin' Boy
Note: Some songs are so strong that they single-handedly overshadow a body
of work. Tom Paxton's 'Last Thing On My Mind' was such a song, and from
that moment on there were few 1960s folk clubs where someone didn't get
up and sing it, or 'Bottle Of Wine' or some other Paxton composition. In
the longer term however, it's his children's songs that may persist for
decades. What we risk forgetting is his wonderful sense of humor.

The Iron Muse - Various Artists
Produced by A. L. Lloyd
Note: Licensed from Topic Records in the UK with a booklet giving notes
on the songs, written by A. L. (Bert) Lloyd. In the mid-60s, the era of
the oppressed worker seemed as much a part of British industry's past as
the grimy and foggy urban view on the cover of this album. Then came the
miner's strike in the 80s and the Blackleg Miner didn't seem so outdated
after all.

their Elektra Traditions series, released those tracks as 'The Original
Lost Elektra Sessions' (R2 73505). According to Paul Rothchild's sleeve
notes for the CD, Elektra had already pressed 10,000 copies of the album,
which Jac agreed to junk at Paul's recommendation.

also released in 1995 in Rhino Records' Elektra Traditions series (R2 73500).

covered by The Move and, at first, it was rumored that the Rolling Stones
were covering 'She Comes in Colours'. This turned out to be a reference
to a completely different song on their 'Satanic Majesties' album. [Also
