Wade In The Water - Ritt Deitz - Shank Hall - 6.01.07
Ritt Deitz and his band perform a folk rock version of Wade In the Water at Shank Hall in Milwaukee.
History: Harriet Tubman sang this spiritual as a warning to runaway slaves. To escaping slaves, the song told them to abandon the path and move into the water. By travelling along the water's edge or across a body of water, the slaves would throw chasing dogs and their keepers off the scent.
