@ruthestherpark i stole the album from the magazine not too long ago every song is a classic in its own way i think most artists are forgotten gems especially jesus blood.

Pure, unadulterated *class*. Bless you, Belafonte.
This was mentioned on NPR a few weeks ago and was my introduction to this song. Thanks for sharing!

there MUST be some of Belafontes TV-show with Odetta and others in the late 50th, which was highly recommended. Id hope to see some of them before - as Belafonte said - "I leave the good earth"

Yes, there were many tv shows with dear Harry, but taping them was not always standard in the 50's. Many 60's shows were not taped, either. You have given me a search mission. Thanks!
