Josh White And Carl Sandburg - Josh White And Carl Sandburg
Review by Martine Vangaver
Josh White And Carl Sandburg's self-titled album is a beautiful collaboration between two iconic figures in American folk music. The album features Sandburg's poetry set to White's soulful guitar playing, resulting in a hauntingly beautiful sound that captures the spirit of the American South.
The album's opener, "The Ballad of Dan Moody," sets the tone for the rest of the record with its mournful melody and evocative lyrics. Other standout tracks include "The Great Dust Storm," which features Sandburg's powerful spoken word performance, and "The House That Jack Built," a haunting ballad that showcases White's impressive guitar skills.

About Josh White And Carl Sandburg
Josh White (born February 11, 1914 in Greenville, South Carolina, died September 5, 1969 in Manhasset, N.Y.) was an American singer, guitarist, songwriter, actor, and civil rights activist.
Some of his recordings in the mid-1930s were released as by .
Josh White was one of the most popular and influential folksingers in America in the mid-20th century. His most famous song, One Meat Ball, is about a poor man who has little money to buy dinner and who gets little sympathy from the waiter serving him. The folk music genre has often had a strong social and political foundation, and Whites career is a clear example of that; he sang for President Franklin Roosevelt at the White House in the 1940s, he suffered from the effects of McCarthyism in the 1950s, and he was a featured performer at the 1963 March on Washington.
