11/12/2009

Amanda Wilde is the host of "The Swing Years and Beyond" heard Saturday evenings on KUOW. Every month she talks with KUOW's Dave Beck and explores the origins of songs that sound familiar. This month Amanda has been listening to a mid–19th century tune with roots in the world of slavery and Southern plantation life.
