Barbara Dane: On My Way [Preview Video]
Description
This video is based on the documentary film, “Barbara Dane: On My Way,” which celebrates the life story of an unsung hero of American music—directed by Maureen Gosling and courtesy of the Barbara Dane Legacy Project. Her career-spanning two-disc retrospective 'Hot Jazz, Cool Blues & Hard-Hitting Songs' is out February 16, 2018, on Smithsonian Folkways. 'Hot Jazz, Cool Blues & Hard-Hitting Songs' available on CD and Digital. Stream/download/purchase: Smithsonian Folkways: https://folkways.si.edu/barbara-dane/hot-jazz-cool-blues-and-hard-hitting-songs Bandcamp: https://barbaradane.bandcamp.com/album/hot-jazz-cool-blues-hard-hitting-songs This 2 CD retrospective reflects over 60 years of Barbara Dane’s eclectic musical history in folk, blues and jazz. The 38 tracks include 14 never-before-released recordings, featuring collaborations with Lightin’ Hopkins, the Chambers Brothers, Doc Watson, Pete Seeger, Memphis Slim and Willie Dixon, Art Hodes, and more. The extensive liner notes give insight into Dane’s singular trajectory as an outspoken and indomitable artist who, unwilling to make the compromises demanded by the music business, struck out on her own path, singing for peace and social justice.
