Item Description
The Womansong Collection CD by Gerri Gribi
Too often, the "women's" music we hear is about victims, murder ballads, song of unrequited love and downtrodden wives. Though such songs are a valid part of the tradition, theymust be balanced with other views so we can fully appreciate and understand women's role in history.
Women past and present have developed a vibrant oral tradition which documents their concerns, joys, struggles, and achievements. I began searching for these "women positive" songs in 1982, and in 1984 recorded an album called Womansong. Prince Charming Doesn't Live Here followed in 1991. This CD features a wide selection of favorite from both, plus two new songs.
This project is a small, ecletic sample of rich heritage. I dedicate it to my foremothers, whose lives and dreams are part of my cultural inheritance. Gerri Gribi
