Mr. Robeson sings a most beautiful rendition of this song. Merely his incredible voice, a piano and the Carnegie Hall venue were all he needed or ever will. From 1958!

    I'm grateful for your comment, and completely feel as you do; thank you! I remember from my youth that older family members would say about some favorite singer, "I could listen to him/her till the cows come home." They weren't discussing Paul Robeson, or any singer in particular. It was just a way of saying they loved that performer! Well, since early childhood I've felt Paul was a genius, and wished for his friendship. Hope to meet him when my "cows come home."
