About this product
What's a Wobbly? Legend has it that a Chinese cook in a railroad gang while proudly announcing that he was a member of the IWW (Industrial Workers of the World & #151; a union formed to organize all workers) was heard to say he was a member of the I-Wobbly-Wobbly. Despite their humorous nickname, the members of IWW experienced tremendous struggles which were often documented through song. Starting as a one-paged leaflet headed by the words Sing and fight! Right was the tyrant king who said 'Beware of a movement that sings' the IWW's Little Red Song Book soon grew to include dozens of songs including Ralph Chaplin's Solidarity Forever. As a special treat, this album also includes excerpts from Chaplin's speech at a woodworker's convention in 1960. Album Tracks 1. The Commonwealth of Toil 2. Mr. Block 3. 50,000 Lumberjacks 4. Pie in the Sky (Preacher and the Slave) 5. Workingman Unite 6. Dump the Bosses Off Your Back 7. Joe Hill 8. Hallelujah, I'm a Bum 9. The Rebel Girl 10. There Is Power in a Union 11. Boom Went the Boom 12. Ralph Chaplin Speaks 13. Solidarity Forever
