Worried Now, Won't Be Worried Long: Alan Lomax's "Southern Journey," 1959–1960

This work compiles field recordings from Alan Lomax's pivotal 1959-1960 Southern Journey, capturing traditional music across the American South.

While primarily released as an album (15 tracks, 42 minutes), it represents part of Lomax's broader documentation efforts that influenced the folk revival movement.

The recordings include spirituals, work songs, and folk ballads, with additional material from 1960 coastal Georgia/Virginia recordings made with his daughter Anna.
