From Amazon.com

Indispensable!

 Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: These are the songs..and the singers..that helped to change our world in those determining times of the civil rights movement. If you were there, this collection will take you back; if you weren't, this music will claim you too as a sister or brother. A must!

Powerful

 Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: This cd helps evoke the importance of music in the fight for civil rights in the South. I would suggest this work to anyone who desires to understand the unspoken history of the South and the full push toward equality with folk's special place in history.
