Listen to Seeger's Previously Unreleased "Joe Hill" Did you know Pete Seeger: The Smithsonian Folkways Collectioncontains 20 never-before-released recordings from Pete's 60+ years as a performer? Now available for streaming is "Joe Hill," a 1946 outtake from Pete's album Roll the Union On. "Joe Hill" is a poignant ode to the famed industrial worker, union organizer, and songwriter, who was convicted of murder in 1915 under unsure circumstances. Seeger was a relentless advocate for the industrial workers movement, so covering the song came with purpose, as he pushed for fair treatment and rights. Written by Earl Robinson and Alfred Hayes, the song was exposed to a wider mainstream audience through Joan Baez at Woodstock in 1969.
