Clyde and the Milltailers
Which side are you on was written by Florence Reece in 1931 about the Harlan County War and the struggles miners faced for organizing and fighting for a better quality of life. As well as adding the first two choruses that were inspired from Evan Greers Picket Line Song I have added my own verse about the Ludlow Massacre that took place in Ludlow Colorado where the Colorado National Guard killed between 19 & 26 people during a strike organized by the United Mine Workers of America.
Clyde McGee - Vocals, Banjo, Guitar
David Rowley - Upright Bass
Misti Dawn - Mandolyn and Banjolele
Nick Carter - Violin
Percussion - Taylor Riley
Recorded and mastered by Taylor Riley at Fusion Audio Solutions
