I Am Obsessed With "The Union Boys" Band, Formed On March 11, 1944, That Literally Only Existed For One

i am Obsessed with "The Union Boys" band, formed on March 11, 1944, that literally only existed for one day.

they released one album consisting of entirely anti-fascist, anti-racist, and pro union songs. And it was given its name by Moses Asch, very descriptive name.

I Am Obsessed With "The Union Boys" Band, Formed On March 11, 1944, That Literally Only Existed For One

consisting of Josh White (underrated ! listen to his music), Sonny Terry, Brownie McGhee, Pete Seeger, Burl Ives, Tom Glazer, and technically woody guthrie. this album is the reason i always have "UAW-CIO" stuck in my head lol.

btw there is actually a lot of good country music out there, you just need to know where to look.

here's 10 of my personal favorite country/western tracks in no particular order:

there's plenty more than these that i like, but i tried to interject some that my followers might not be familiar with to broaden horizons
