I had met Mr Robeson only a few days before this epic appearance and had a 10 minute private audience with him. Here he is singinging to 4,000 people inside the Cathedral and another 5,000 massed outside. It is late summer 1958. A landmark in his career; the first black man to sing in St Paul's Cathedral.

Je suis tout à fait d'accord, Antoonmaka. Qu'est-ce qu'il pouvait chanter! Et c'était en plus le plus grand homme du peuple du 20e siècle. Vive le camarade Paul Robeson!
even better than his studio version, I like the lyric "do you think I'll make a Soldier". And of course, I must metion his thunderous voice, perhaps the greatest bass of all history, operatic included.
