"Tolpuddle" REMIX
Manage episode 422420586 series 2436821
In 1834, organizing a union in England was legal on the books, but not in reality. Farmworkers in Tolpuddle, on the south coast of England, tried to organize a union and were deported to Australia for it. A massive movement across the country forced the government to pardon the Tolpuddle Martyrs, as the farmworkers became known, and transport them back to England.
This version of the song, from a live show in Crewe, England, was enhanced afterwards by multi-instrumentalist and audio engineer, Chet Gardiner, from his studio in Hawai'i. It will be part of our next collaborative album, to be titled, I Heard A Rumor, to be released on July 4th, 2024.
