This Train Still Runs by Holly Near and Ronnie Gilbert © 1996 Abbe Alice Music Produced by Donna A. Korones Nineteen wonderful songs performed live by Near and Gilbert, celebrating Ronnie's 70th birthday. Great renditions of songs written by Near, Gilbert, Phil Ochs, Janis Ian, Sally Fingerett, Mimi Fariña, Woody Guthrie, E.Y. Harburg, and Burton Lane. Near and Gilbert stand out strong as two of America's most outspoken women in music. They have collaborated for over a decade, bringing together two generations of music lovers–from those who grew up on the Weavers to those who grew up on Holly Near to those who are growing up on Melissa Etheridge. The recording also celebrates Gilbert's 70th birthday. This is not a nostalgic recording about "the good ole bad ole days". It is new, direct, challenging, compassionate and funny. Great songs. Great singers. Great tradition.
