I love this! The emotion and energy she puts into her singing makes one want to jump in the air and start praising one’s god. This is why I scroll UA-cam to search for things of this nature. Thanks for posting!!
I LOVE THIS SONG..My Mom and Dad Danced to this Song back in the day....Barbara Dane is in my head...This is REAL ROCK and ROLL......It needs to come BACK!!!....WOW A Blond With A Voice Like Etta James.....Barbara Keep Singing!!!Kev
What Happened To Music?..It All Went Down The Tubes...This Is Pure Rock and Roll....And R&B..Now it is 2019 There is NOBUDDY...I Was Little When This Was Happening!!!!...Just Love It,kev
Groooooovin'. Getting ready to move to Seattle to be with the man of my dreams, and I sent him this song. Glory hallelujah, baby! I'm on my way! hahahaha
This song is a very old "Negro" spiritual. The original lyrics were "I'm on my way to Canaan's land". Barbara did this in 1962 (not 1960). Barb will be 90 on 5-12.
MilwaukeeMark65 -- Thanks for the accurate information. At this writing, she will be 91 in about three months. Still going strong, just like her voice. An amazing voice.
I recently saw Barbara Dane perform at the San Francisco Jazz Center (along with a couple original Chambers Brothers) for her 90th birthday! Needless to say it wasn't some UK/Euro "popcorn/mod/northern soul" event. Well, it should be needless to say that,...to an American anyway.
I was kinda flabbergasted when I learned that this is actually a white girl - could've fooled me and I've heard a lot of soul. Great song! Thank you very much for posting!
Native Americans taught Europeans how to survive here in my Americas when they first arrived here 527 years ago and the Africans in America built the entire USA for Free through blood sweat and tears i,m Narragansett American Indian mix with that Mighty African and i love all good people but in short i been here since the iceage until it melted into slavery PEACE
Yes, this is the early I-hate-the-capitalist-system-Barbara-Dane! I wish, she had already sung lyrics like that in her early days ;-) Great popcorn classic here anyway!
Catching up on R& B that I missed as A War Baby in Oz. American music reminded me of my rascally father's country. AND then the British Musical Invasion took place...Americans turned their backs (mainly) on their own music. Two Limey Bands became the biggest ev=ah acts in music !!! I say !!!
bill, is this one sped up lightly? other songs her voice sounds lower and the tempo is slower. another one I've been listening to nonstop for 5 years. even if it is its better this way.
I realize you made this comment years ago, but in 2018 Smithsonian/Folkways put out a Barbara Dane compilation. However if you're expecting it all to sound like this particular track you may be surprised. Most of her stuff is already available however.
I'm on my way and I won't turn back. I'm on my way and I won't turn back. I'm on my way great God I'm on my way. I'll ask my brother come go with me. I'm on my way great God I'm on my way. If he won't come I'll go alone. I'm on my way great God I'm on my way. I'll ask my sister come go with me. I'm on my way great God I'm on my way. If she won't come I'II go anyhow. I'm on my way great God I'm on my way. I'm on my way to the freedom land. I'm on my way great God I'm on my way. I'm on my way and I won't turn back. I'm on my way great God I'm on my way.
Not to be confused with the (white) folk/protest/classic blues singer of same name, whose career included recordings w/ L. Armstrong/Lightnin' Hopkins, B$ moving into a more feminist songwriting dimension.
hi Elaine - did they both do versions of this song? because I'm trying to find this 45 on discogs but it seems there's another version by the folk singer and I'm confused as they have the same name and sing the same song apparently!
Dan Geddes to be fair the two versions sound very different - I can’t find this version on Spotify or anything! Does anyone know which album this version is from ?
This phenomenal interpreter of blues and gospel music and socialist campaigner is 96 years young (as at January 2024).✊
Yes
Go on soul sister , you tell um 🎶🎶🎶🎶❤️
This is the song I listened to that gave me the courage to leave my abusive husband. That was 7 years ago. I still love this song.
If you need it- Northern Soul has it! Love from Chicago!

This song is a very old "Negro" spiritual. The original lyrics were "I'm on my way to Canaan's land". Barbara did this in 1962 (not 1960). Barb will be 90 on 5-12.
Happy Birthday then...

This is from 1960. It's her album version that was from 1962.
Can't believe you're allowed to say negro, we're not.
I love you ♡
"And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him."

Killer tune
Top tuneeeeeeeee
Fantastic 45 which has been tearing up Mod/RnB Dancefloors since the 90s
This was released in 1960 !
Pop corn music, simply fantastic! Gatsby, A11, Viertap!
"pop corn music" didn't exist back then. Actually it still doesn't.

I was kinda flabbergasted when I learned that this is actually a white girl - could've fooled me and I've heard a lot of soul. Great song! Thank you very much for posting!
White girl, with black soul and heart !!!! Fantastic
lol lol God and many of us dont see skin colour xxx
A lot of Europeans have that classic soul voice here in the USA many live in our Southern States
Native Americans taught Europeans how to survive here in my Americas when they first arrived here 527 years ago and the Africans in America built the entire USA for Free through blood sweat and tears i,m Narragansett American Indian mix with that Mighty African and i love all good people but in short i been here since the iceage until it melted into slavery PEACE

This smokes!
Fabulous version of an old spiritual.
superb
the northern soul scene has now claimed it lol top top toon x
Terrific record 👏 👌
Top drawer,
I'd say yes.Go gree.
Can't believe this version was recorded in 1960!
Catching up on R& B that I missed as A War Baby in Oz. American music reminded me of my rascally father's country. AND then the British Musical Invasion took place...Americans turned their backs (mainly) on their own music. Two Limey Bands became the biggest ev=ah acts in music !!! I say !!!

Mmmm ... nice!
I'm on my way.

too bad someone like Rhino Records doesn't put together a good B. Dane anthology...

any chance you could post the b-side? i'd love to hear it but i have no clue how to track it down other than spening a couple hundred bucks on this 7"
b side is on youtube too, its go 'way from my window
Block and twist
So is this slightly sped up or are all the other versions wrong?
Could possibly be....tend to speed it up when djing so might have given it a few percent on here...:)
@@cadlagh1 i like it better your way. its become quite my life's mission to find my own copies of these for myself. really want that five splendors!
2:32 😘
You're going with me.
Ray Charles must have been popcorn music, too. But classy and sexy are not limitations to something soulful.

are you an L.S.D. casualty ? Barbara Dane IS WHITE of skin and this IS her-who DID sing with Lightnin'-MORON
@@rosietodd5584 It's the same person. Elaine is wrong.
Dan Geddes ah okay thank you !!
