I've never been much of a fan of Odetta's singing, even though I like her ideas and recognize and respect her huge influence in music. Just my personal opinion. However in this song I think every note she sings is just perfect. This song just has such a great anti-racist message and is sung with such soul, I've listened to this song like 50 times already its just so good!

RIP odetta

It was written by Leadbelly when he came to Washington, DC, with John Lomax and couldn't find a place to stay.

What a performance.

You get an artist of this stature once in a generation - we were lucky to share the planet with her!
