Best releases of 1996-97 was giving birth at age 44 to Ariel Horowitz and being able to reissue Bernice Johnson Reagon’s Give Your Hand To Struggle, Voices of the Civil Rights Movement, and Wade in the Water boxed set as well as be a producer of Toshi Reagon’s Kindness CD. Oh right and then there was the reissue of Anthology of American Folk Music for which I received a GRAMMY as co-producer. Two very busy years.
