Musical Works

Juravich has produced three albums of labor music, spoken word and song. His first album, Rising Again, was produced by the United Auto Workers.

Juravich subsequently released two more albums. He composed a number of songs for the film Out of Darkness, a semi-documentary history of the United Mine Workers. The songs were released as a compilation soundtrack album in 1983. His third album, "A World to Win," was a collection of original labor-themed songs. Both of the these albums were released on the Flying Fish Records label.

Famous quotes containing the words musical and/or works:

    Fifty million Frenchmen can’t be wrong.
    —Anonymous. Popular saying.

    Dating from World War I—when it was used by U.S. soldiers—or before, the saying was associated with nightclub hostess Texas Quinan in the 1920s. It was the title of a song recorded by Sophie Tucker in 1927, and of a Cole Porter musical in 1929.

    There is a great deal of self-denial and manliness in poor and middle-class houses, in town and country, that has not got into literature, and never will, but that keeps the earth sweet; that saves on superfluities, and spends on essentials; that goes rusty, and educates the boy; that sells the horse, but builds the school; works early and late, takes two looms in the factory, three looms, six looms, but pays off the mortgage on the paternal farm, and then goes back cheerfully to work again.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
