About half of the Folkways "Talking Union" LP was recorded by a group assembled for that 1955 LP release. The cover is (probably intentionally) misleading: THE ORIGINAL TALKING UNION with the Almanac Singers & other UNION SONGS with Pete Seeger and Chorus One member of the 1955 chorus was Mary Travers, later of Peter Paul & Mary. The arrangements are similar enough that you have to listen closely to figure out which tracks are the Almanacs, and which were the later group. But that's why there are songs on the Folkways LP that aren't on the more recent CD reissues of Almanac Singers' old 78s.
