features in: (B-list) Album Chart of 1955(B-list) Album Chart of the 1950s

TJR says

This 12" LP on the Smithsonian Folkways label was as themed as themed could be. 13 songs for the working man and his trade unions. Side B was "Talking Union" (the complete 3 x 78 Almanac Singers album from 1941) and side A was "Other Union Songs", an offering of 7 new songs from Pete Seeger. A strong set.
