Mermaid Avenue (original) (raw)

dbo:abstract

Mermaid Avenue is a 1998 album of previously unheard lyrics written by American folk singer Woody Guthrie, put to music written and performed by British singer Billy Bragg and the American band Wilco. The project was the first of several such projects organized by Guthrie's daughter, Nora Guthrie, original director of the Woody Guthrie Foundation and archives. Mermaid Avenue was released on the Elektra Records label on June 23, 1998. A second volume of recordings, Mermaid Avenue Vol. II, followed in 2000 and both were collected in a box set alongside volume three in 2012 as Mermaid Avenue: The Complete Sessions. The projects are named after the song "Mermaid's Avenue", written by Guthrie. This was also the name of the street in Coney Island, New York, on which Guthrie lived. According to American Songwriter Magazine, "The Mermaid Avenue project is essential for showing that Woody Guthrie could illuminate what was going on inside of him as well as he could detail the plight of his fellow man". It was voted number 939 in Colin Larkin's All Time Top 1000 Albums 3rd Edition (2000). (en)

Mermaid Avenue är ett album utgivet av den brittiske musikern Billy Bragg tillsammans med det amerikanska bandet Wilco, utgivet i juni 1998. Låttexterna på albumet är skrivna av folkmusikern Woody Guthrie. När Woody Guthrie avled 1967 lämnade han efter sig ett tusental färdiga texter skrivna mellan 1939 och 1967. 1995 kontaktades singer-songwritern Billy Bragg av Guthries dotter Nora om att komponera musik till några av dessa tidigare opublicerade texter. Bragg kontaktade i sin tur alt-countrybandet Wilco och bad dem medverka. Projektet resulterade i ytterligare ett album, Mermaid Avenue Vol. II utgivet 2000. (sv)
