{"product_id":"where-did-you-sleep-last-night-lead-belly-legacy-vol-1","title":"Where Did You Sleep Last Night: Lead Belly Legacy, Vol. 1","description":"WHERE DID YOU SLEEP LAST NIGHT? is, in part, a reissue of the first two volumes (Folkways 2004 and 2014) of the four-volume set LEADBELLY'S LEGACY, originally released on 10-inch LPs in the early 1950s. WHERE DID YOU SLEEP uses different versions of some of the songs, and adds outtakes and previously-unreleased recordings.\u003cbr\u003ePersonnel includes: Leadbelly (vocals, guitar, button accordion, piano); Brownie McGhee (guitar); Sonny Terry (harmonica); Willie \"The Lion\" Smith (piano); Pops Foster (bass).\u003cbr\u003eThe Oleander Quartet: George Boyd, Cecil Murray, Howard Scott, George Hall (vocals).\u003cbr\u003eCompilation producers: Jeff Place, Anthony Seeger, Matt Walters, Pete Reiniger.\u003cbr\u003ePrincipally recorded at Asch Recording Studios, New York, New York between 1941 and 1947. Includes liner notes and song-by-song annotations by Jeff Place.\u003cbr\u003eThis fine 34-track compilation, collected from sessions produced by Folkways founder Moses Asch and featuring cameos from Sonny Terry and Brownie McGhee, is a strong compilation of some of Leadbelly's finest recordings. For those confused by the album's name, the titular composition--one of Huddie \"Leadbelly\" Ledbetter's most haunting and celebrated works--is included here under its original name \"In the Pines.\"\u003cbr\u003eLeadbelly classics like \"Cotton Fields\" and an early version of \"Goodnight Irene\" sit beside traditional folk standards like \"Pick a Bale of Cotton\" and \"Grey Goose\" and hard blues like \"Moanin',\" showcasing Leadbelly's remarkable versatility. However, it's the surprise inclusion of five outstanding previously unreleased songs, including a fairly obscure variant of \"House of the Rising Sun\" called \"New Orleans Blues,\" that makes this compilation essential to Leadbelly fans. As always with Folkways reissues, the sound is excellent.","brand":"InnerSleeve","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47316824588453,"sku":"741157206814","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/6007\/1077\/files\/35d452d4d9dbe6ba13e6730523272a17.jpg?v=1766144194","url":"https:\/\/www.innersleeve.com\/en-au\/products\/where-did-you-sleep-last-night-lead-belly-legacy-vol-1","provider":"InnerSleeve","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
