content: CDR copy FW-ASCH-7RR-0852 contains dubs of field recordings of worksongs of "Negro longshoremen of the Bell Steamship Company" recorded by Alan Lomax in Tampa, Florida, in January, 1940. The originals, in the American Folklife Center of the Library of Congress, are listed and further described in their Traditional Music and Spoken Word Catalog, at http://memory.loc.gov/diglib/ihas/html/afccards/afccards-home.html, Curiously, these selections are not listed in the old printed Library of Congress Checklist of the Archive of American Folk Song; perhaps they were recorded a little too late to be included. The singers are John Henry Epps, Nathaniel Wellman, Jezel (?) and Charlie Rutlidge.
