Songs About Work

We return once more to a theme. In this episode of Deeper Roots, we visit the ‘salt mines’ where we toil for our daily bread or made to work off our sins. The old addage, attributed to Thomas Edison: “There is no substitute for hard work.” left out the other side of the coin…that of paydays on Friday and working for the weekend…which, of course, we’ll cover in great detail in a show whose theme is ‘work’. Tune in for roots music from Doc Watson and Flatt & Scruggs, both wicked and lovely R&B from Marva Whitney and Fats Domino, and rebellious rocking from Eddie Cochran and Bo Diddley.
