The recordings on this album were made in Texas prison farms in July 1964. Bruce Jackson had gone there in the hope of recording black convict worksongs, a tradition that derived from slavery, and, before that, was imported from Africa. Many of the prisons in Texas, Mississippi and Louisiana where such songs had been sung, had been built on the sites of slaverytime plantations. It was as if the owners changed, but not much else. Bruce found far more than worksongs. Prison is a place where people live: when they go there, they bring with them pieces of free world culture, just as someone migrating from one country to another brings cultural knowledge and practice to the new home. In addition to the worksongs, he heard spirituals, blues, toasts (recited poems), and much more. In this LP, he tries to give a sense of that range of material. (In other recordings, he would focus on work songs, toasts, and personal narrative.) This iconic album has now been re-mastered and features original artwork in full

Professional and streamlined leather backpack
I’ve had a dozen or so backpacks to use for work (corporate environment), and I really love this one. The leather is of high quality, plenty of pockets, strong zippers, straps, and grab handle, and provides a polished, professional, well-put together look. In the rear, zippered compartment, I have a 15-inch HP laptop, an iPad, and a 1/2 inch notebook. The main compartment is spacious and holds chargers for each device plus a lot of other miscellaneous items. There are two front, zippered compartments (one is intentionally “hidden” behind the other) that offer a secure and accessible way to access smaller items like pens, air pods, keys, etc. Great purchase, and I would definitely buy it again.

Love it!!!
Color: Mocha Brown
I bought it because it's the perfect size for carry-on luggage on the plane, and it's big enough to carry several things. Excellent quality for the price. It looks super cute and goes with everything.

Lots of storage but compact look
Color: Mocha Brown
I was looking for something for my corporate 9-5 and was over a tote bag. This is perfect! It fits so much without it feeling or looking bulky. Love the amount of storage it has and I think it would even be a good travel bag
