One Grain of Sand is a studio album by the American folk singer and guitarist Odetta. It was released in January 1963 through Vanguard Records,.. - Wikipedia
One Grain of Sand Review by William Ruhlmann
By the time the independent folk label Vanguard Records got around to releasing its sixth Odetta album, One Grain of Sand, in 1963, the singer had already decamped to RCA Victor and released her major-label debut, Sometimes I Feel Like Cryin', in 1962. But One Grain of Sand is not just a collection of outtakes assembled to fulfill a contract and take revenge on a departed artist. It finds Odetta accompanying herself as usual on acoustic guitar and joined by Bill Lee on string bass, putting her inimitable stamp on a good set of traditional folk songs along with numbers associated with Leadbelly, Woody Guthrie, and Pete Seeger. She also brings in spirituals, blues, and even country on a cover of "Cool Water."..

Odetta at Town Hall is a live album by American folk singer Odetta, recorded at Town Hall, New York, NY. At this time, Odetta was at the height of her career and performed an annual concert at the venue, typically in the month of April. It is not clear if this is her 1961 or 1962 concert performance. It could potentially be a compilation of her performances at Town Hall throughout the early 1960s. - Wikipedia

Odetta and the Blues is an album by folk singer Odetta, released in 1962.
...Odetta had been coveting a movie role based on Bessie Smith's life and felt that releasing a blues album would be a good way to transition her public in accepting her as a blues singer. She recorded her Riverside album and her first album for RCA within 2 weeks of each other in April 1962.
Recorded as the 1950s/1960s American folk music revival was getting underway, the album is notable for Odetta's use of a jazz band on the record. - Wikipedia

Christmas Spirituals is the name of two albums recorded by the American folk singer Odetta. The first was released in 1960 on Vanguard Records. The second, a new recording of mostly the same songs, produced by Rachel Faro at White Crowe Audio in Burlington, Vermont, was originally released in 1987 on Alcazar Records and was reissued digitally in 2007 on Ashe Records. Both albums have Bill Lee, Spike Lee's father on double bass. The cover of the second Christmas Spirituals album, by the artist Coleen Patterson, depicts a Black Madonna by the River Jordan with the Three Kings in attendance. Odetta said that these songs were traditional spirituals that emerged from the sufferings of slavery as a catharsis for the terrible wrongs that were committed. - Wikipedia

Dag 4695 – Odetta – Masters Of War
Ik heb een hele lijst met covers waar ik nog eens over wil schrijven en de meeste zijn Bob Dylan covers. Maar ja, het heet CoverThursday en niet BobDylanCoverThursday, dus doe ik af en toe een Dylan cover en duurt het nog wel even voor ik door die lijst heen ben.
Maar vandaag is het weer eens tijd voor een Dylan cover, al is het maar dat ik al die oorlogen en al die oorlogszuchtige mannetjes spuugzat ben.
Let me ask you one question
Is your money that good
Will it buy you forgiveness
Do you think that it could
I think you will find
When your death takes its toll
All the money you made
Will never buy back your soul
Time for one more from this side of the world - need to turn in for an early day tomorrow …
Odetta (Odetta Holmes, the voice of the Civil Rights Movement), "Jack o' Diamonds" (1956)
"Put your Jack on the Queen
And it'll turn your money green
Your Jack is a hard card to play …"
