Comprised of fifteen songs, each are mini-dramas. Something is happening in each one of them. Someone is travelling, working, or suffering. Their messages are universal to the human experience. They still resonate. Kohn did extensive editing of the available texts to keep the storytelling succinct. "I arranged these songs, but I did not write them. Our ancestors, storytellers with great musical talent, did that many years ago." -Steven Mark Kohn, 2000
