Sara Lee Guthrie & Caitlin Stubbs - 'Victor Jara'
Вставка
- Опубліковано 10 вер 2024
- Live at The Pavilion Theatre, Brighton, 2nd October, 2011, performing a song written by Caitlin's grandfather (Adrian Mitchell) and Sara Lee's father (Arlo Guthrie). This gentle collision of musical ancestry was a happy coincidence, and Caitlin and Sara Lee had only one brief rehearsal together in the dressing room before this performance.
The song is as beautiful as Victor Jara’s ideas
Your grand fathers would be proud of you
Beautiful song homage to V. Jara. Beautiful and armonious voices. Thanks Sara L. Guthrie and Caitlin Stubbs. It moved me deeply. V. Jara is in our memory.
What a wonderful song. What wonderful people. Sarah Lee, Caitlin, Arlo, Adrian, and, of course, Victor-meaningful people. Meaningful and beautiful songs will never disappear. They will continue to inspire us (or at least me and those like me). Long live the Struggle!
Este es un hermoso y armonioso homenaje para nuestro compatriota Víctor Jara. Saludos desde un país indolente y miserable llamado “chile” arrodillado ante la riqueza de unos pocos y las armas cargadas, para ser disparadas una vez más contra su propio pueblo. Algún día podremos recomponer nuestra confianza, pero sería como una estrella fugaz. Gracias Woody Guthrie (Poeta Norteamericano y mata facista con su guitarra y poesía) por ser el padre de Arlo Guthrie que junto a Adrian Mitchell compusieron esta canción. Gracias Sara Lee Guthrie & Caitlin Stubbs por permitirnos honrar su recuerdo y valentía en tiempos de Aniquilar y Desaparecer la voz y verdad de un pueblo sometido a la voluntad imperialista de EEUU (Nixon y Kissinger) confabulados con la corte subyugada de latinoamerica toda..!!! (acción CONDOR)..malditos todos.. y hoy nuestro país gobernardo por EL GRAN INFILTRADO (voto por el NO y se dice que es un chileno de CLASE MEDIA posicionado en el 4to. lugar de los más ricos de su país) llamado chile )....
VICTOR JARA de CHILE
Vivió como una estrella fugaz
Luchó por el pueblo de Chile
Con sus canciones y su guitarra
Sus manos eran suaves, sus manos eran fuertes
Víctor Jara era un campesino
Trabajaba desde los pocos años
Se sentaba en el arado de su padre
Y miraba cómo se desplegaba la tierra
Sus manos eran suaves, sus manos eran fuertes
Ahora cuando los vecinos tenían una boda
O uno de sus hijos murió
Su madre cantó toda la noche para ellos
Con Víctor a su lado
Sus manos eran suaves, sus manos fuertes
Creció para ser un luchador
Contra los males de la gente
Escuchó su dolor y alegría
Y los convirtió en canciones
Sus manos eran suaves, sus manos eran fuertes
Cantó sobre los mineros del cobre
Y los que trabajaban la tierra
Cantó sobre los trabajadores de la fábrica
Y ellos sabían que él era su hombre
Sus manos eran suaves, sus manos eran fuertes..
También es posible escuchar esta versión, un poco más fuerte en donde se describe crudamente el tormento y la masacre a la que fue sometido por nuestros "valientes soldados" o más bien "traidores torturadores" .
Hizo campaña por Allende
Trabajando día y noche
Cantó "Toma la mano de tu hermano
Sabes que el futuro comienza hoy"
Sus manos eran suaves, sus manos fuertes
Luego los generales tomaron Chile
Arrestaron a Víctor y luego
lo enjaularon en un estadio
Con cinco mil hombres asustados
Sus manos eran suaves, sus manos eran fuertes
Víctor estaba en el estadio
Su voz era valiente y fuerte
Y cantó para sus compañeros de prisión
Hasta que los guardias interrumpieron su canción
Sus manos eran suaves, sus manos eran fuertes
Le rompieron los huesos de ambas manos
Lo golpearon en la cabeza
Lo desgarraron con descargas eléctricas
Y luego lo mataron a tiros
Sus manos eran suaves, sus manos eran fuertes
Ahora los generales gobiernan Chile
y los británicos tienen su agradecimiento
porque gobiernan con Hawker Hunters
Y gobiernan con los tanques Chieftain
Sus manos eran suaves, sus manos eran fuertes
HONOR Y GLORIA AL COMPAÑERO VÍCTOR JARA !!!!! EL PUEBLO UNIDO, JAMÁS SERÁ VENCIDO !!!!!!!
SIEMPRE DE PIE, NUNCA DE RODILLAS !!!!!!!!!!
VICTOR VIVE EN EL CORAZON DE SU PUEBLO.NADA ESTÁ OLVIDADO .VICTOR ES ETERNO E INALCANZABLE .
GRACIAS🙏💐💐
Just Beautiful...brings me to tears...saw Woody and Arlo when I was a young teenager at Belle Isle Park in Detroit...still love the Guthrie family after all these years...
Pete got to live and sing longer than Woody or Victor, Z"L! We know what ya mean, though! Belle Isle in my imagi-nation from Dylan's lovely song, wherever that wispy evocative tune came from or went...
Keep on lovin, singin, doin

PS - Fewer people got to know Jack Hardy or the Songwriters' Exchange he hosted for many formative years in Greenwich Village. I was there one night minding the stove the skillet of pasta oil sizzling peppers and bottles of dark musty port while the gestating songs being workshopped carried on in a circle (see the documentary of Suzanne Vega for a scene in that chilly then warm cold water flat, the 5-floor walk-up with toilet down the hall at 178 W. Houston....Jack himself work-shopped this one that takes a few steps from U.S. nortenos learning who Victor and Joan Jara were and wha' happened while we took our eyes and other good senses off of Washington's back rooms and those Dulles Brothers with Uncle Miltie Friedman were cooking up weaponized Neo-Liberal E-CON-omics to keep us all in terror...Jack called this song "I Oughta Know" with a wink and generational nod of "So it goes..." to Adrian Mitchell and Arlo writing this memorializing eulogy for Victor Jara! P-R-E-E-S-E-N-T-E!!!

Victor Jara was a peasant
He worked from a few years old
He sat upon his father's plow
And watched the earth unfold
His hands were gentle, his hands were strong
Now when the neighbors had a wedding
Or one of their children died
His mother sang all night for them
With Victor by her side
His hands were gentle, his hands were strong
He grew up to be a fighter
Against the people's wrongs
He listened to their grief and joy
And turned them into songs
His hands were gentle, his hands were strong
He sang about the copper miners
And those who worked the land
He sang about the factory workers
And they knew he was their man
His hands were gentle, his hands were strong
He campaigned for Allende
Working night and day
He sang "Take hold of your brothers hand
You know the future begins today"
His hands were gentle, his hands were strong
Then the generals seized Chile
They arrested Victor then
They caged him in a stadium
With five-thousand frightened men
His hands were gentle, his hands were strong
Victor stood in the stadium
His voice was brave and strong
And he sang for his fellow prisoners
Till the guards cut short his song
His hands were gentle, his hands were strong
They broke the bones in both his hands
They beat him on the head
They tore him with electric shocks
And then they shot him dead
His hands were gentle, his hands were strong
Don Van Nostrand Thanks for the lyrics. A bad time in Chile.

Beautiful!!!
Such an emotional night! Your grandad would've loved to have seen/heard you both sing this Caitlin. Is there a way this could be sent to Mandy, Manuela and Joan? I'm sure they'd really appreciate it and they'd be shocked by how grown up you are now! Xx Ps. Sara Lee is absolutely amazing too.
GRACIAS!!
JUSTICE FOR VICTOR JARA! VICTOR LIVES IN THE PEOPLE.
Gracias
no sé quién es la señorita rubia que canta ( me parece que se llama Caitlin Stubbs), pero percibí una profunda emoción en ella que me emocionó a mi, y también el hecho de pensar que alguién que canta en otro idioma y vive tan lejos conozca y sienta tan profundamente la musica y la historia de victor jara...realmente conmovedor, les agradezco tanto sentimiento en esta canción...thank you very much...

grande victor jara...........
part of the song is from desolation row, a little bit of blagary
Great song ;)
Nice
LOVE IT NICE ONE GIRLS❤ ,RAY TWELVE STRINGS U.K
yes!
I wish I had been there! I first heard this song on a Radio 2 folk special about the time it came out - I assume in the Arlo Guthrie original. I had not heard it since till this video. Lovely coming together of two strands. My only problem with the tune is that the first line keeps taking me off to Desolation Row. But then, perhaps that is quite appropriate...
Can you believe I never noticed your comment before? Sorry not to respond at the time. If you had been there we'd probably have some cracking photos...
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Que temas es me dicen porfa
We are.
one of the greatest political songs. one of the US's most ignominious interventions (and that's a bar far too goddamned high).
