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.
