People Take Warning ! Murder Ballads & Disaster Songs, 1913-1938
"In the late 1920's and early 1930's, the Depression gripped the Nation. It was a time when songs were tools for living. A whole community would turn out to mourn the loss of a member and to sow their songs like seeds. This collection is a wild garden grown from those seeds." - Tom Waits, from the Introduction

The Landmark Grammy Nominated Box Set is now repackaged as a beautiful 3CD digipak ! 70 powerful and tragic songs from the Golden Age of American Roots Music. Over 30 never before reissued.
