This album of songs mostly composed in the early 1960s includes two songs by Malvina Reynolds, as well as "The New York J-D Blues," composed by a New York teenager puzzled by a misguided subway ad campaign about juvenile delinquency. Much of the material included in this collection was printed in the influential folk music magazine Broadside, and several songs-including "Mack the Bomb" and "The New York J-D Blues"-appear on Smithsonian Folkways' The Best of Broadside (SF40130).
