[Notes]
"Come all you jolly fellows and listen to my song. It's all about the shantyboys and how they get along." [The Lumber Camp Song] In this collection of Songs for Woodworkers Joe Glazer definitely captures the essence of the jolly spirit of the men and women that often worked in rather harsh and dangerous conditions. In celebration of the International Woodworkers of America's 40th anniversary, this album pays tribute to one of America's greatest unions with songs such as "Talking IWA" and "The Lumberman's Alphabet."
