A postscript: 30 years or so later, Professor Andrew Tomisello in the Music Department at Baruch College, CUNY, involved a recorded perfomance by Odetta to underline a musical point for us students.

During the early 60s, District 5, Levittown, music teacher Larry Eiseman introduced Odetta to his students. 'Red Clay Country,' he said, was about the State of Georgia and those struggles for Afro-Americans to have their prope respect and rights. Mr. Eiseman introduced us, too, to The Weavers and Pete Seeger and Joan Baez and to folk music from around the world.
So, I thank Mr. Eiseman for introducing me to Ms. Odetta. I have loved her voice and messages ever since.
