Album Notes

All arrangements by Janet Stecher and Susan Lewis

This CD includes 13 cuts about work and the labor movement: some historical, and some by contemporary writers like Si Kahn, John McCutcheon, Anne Feeney.

Rebel Voices had help on the CD from Tim Hall on guitar, banjo, and vocals.


"One of the greatest singing duos of our time. Rich harmonies, wonderful stage presence, and humor. I'm proud to share a stage with them any time." - Si Kahn

REVIEWS

I finally found it!

I lent this CD to a friend 5 years ago, and have been looking for it ever since. I am so glad to have found it, and have been listening to it non-stop. This is the best, most musically interesting collection of labor songs I have ever found. I can't wait to use them in my organizing.

Love this CD!
author: Julia Berg
I love this CD because I can sing along with so many of the songs. Their voices are clear and beautiful and the songs are inspiring. I also like the history the songs tell - Dunnes Department store for instance. I had never heard about Ireland and apartheid until the Women at Work CD. I think any supporter of people power will get a lift from listening to this CD.
