Performers include album producers Mark Dann and David Massengill, joined by contemporary folk standouts Nanci Griffith, Suzanne Vega, Jonathan Byrd, Red Molly, Lucy Kaplansky, and Brian Rose. Jack Hardy himself, known as a welcoming host for weekly songwriting workshops, is also included via two unreleased tracks recorded shortly before he died. For the album, Dann and Massengill compiled more than 100 pages of liner notes that include Hardy's \"Songwriter's Manifesto,\" complete lyrics, photos, and personal tributes, anecdotes, and essays from the participating singer-songwriters. In the liner notes, the performers repeatedly cite his valuable perspective on songwriting and give generous thanks for his passion, bravery, stubbornness, determination, and encouragement. In addition to this tribute, the 36-track compilation Fast Folk: A Community of Singers and Songwriters is available from Smithsonian Folkways and includes songs by John Gorka, Suzanne Vega, Dave Van Ronk, and many more.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Tree of Rhyme - David Massengill \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Saint Clare - Suzanne Vega \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Little Dove - Richard Shindell \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Sojourner Truth (Ain't I a Woman?) - Jack Williams \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Murder - Christine Lavin \u003cbr\u003e1.6 You Only Leave Your Heart Once - Richard Julian \u003cbr\u003e1.7 Prisoner - Red Molly \u003cbr\u003e1.8 The Last of the O'Neills - Nels Andrews \u003cbr\u003e1.9 Rye Grass - Paul Sachs \u003cbr\u003e1.10 Houston Street - Frank Christian \u003cbr\u003e1.11 Potter's Field - Erik Frandsen \u003cbr\u003e1.12 Autumn - Jonathan Byrd \u003cbr\u003e1.13 Gossamer Thread - Jack Hardy \u003cbr\u003e2.1 Resolution - Rod MacDonald \u003cbr\u003e2.2 Forget-Me-Not - Lucy Kaplansky \u003cbr\u003e2.3 Dublin Farewell - Anthony Da Costa \u003cbr\u003e2.4 The Tailor - Terre Roche \u003cbr\u003e2.5 Down Where the Rabbits Run - John Gorka \u003cbr\u003e2.6 I Ought to Know - Ronny Cox \u003cbr\u003e2.7 Porto Limon - Brian Rose \u003cbr\u003e2.8 White Shoes - Andrew Rose Gregory \u003cbr\u003e2.9 Go Tell the Savior - Diana Jones \u003cbr\u003e2.10 The Inner Man - Frank Tedesso \u003cbr\u003e2.11 Before You Sing (Instrumental Version) - Kate MacLeod \u003cbr\u003e2.12 Fare Thee Well - Nanci Griffith \u003cbr\u003e2.13 Ponderosa - Jack Hardy\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Various Artists","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32415136514119,"sku":"30896154","price":19.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2976\/0132\/files\/3332480.jpg?v=1747402689","url":"https:\/\/tower.com\/products\/various-artists-tribute-to-jack-hardy-various","provider":"Tower Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
