GUEST,Fred McCormick Lyr Add: There's Anger in the Land (D West, H West (12) RE: Lyr Add: Anger in the Land, not by PP&M or Odetta 27 Sep 14


Mrrzy. If you've never heard of Hedy West, then I strongly recommend that you get an earful, for she was an absolutely wonderful singer.

I can particularly recommend two compilations:-

Hedy West Accompanying Herself on the 5-String Banjo Plus Volume 2. Vanguard VCD 71924. The strange title comes about because they represent two LPs which Hedy recorded for Vanguard in the early sixties.

Ballads & Songs From the Southern Appalachians. Fellside FECD 241. That's a double CD which reprises three albums which she cut for Topic in the early/mid sixties; Albums, Old Times and Hard Times: Pretty Saro and other Appalachian Ballads: Ballads.

The Fellside is, for my money, the most wonderful of the two, but you can find Anger in the Land on the Vanguard.
