Yes, the long memory is the most radical idea in this
country. It is the loss of that long memory which deprives
our people of that connective flow of thoughts and events
that clarifies our vision, not of where we're going, but where
we want to go." - U. Utah Phillips

Loafer's Glory
"The hobo jungle of the mind"
"The hobo jungle of the mind"
Loafer's Glory was originally broadcast
from KVMR in Nevada City, Ca. These
broadcasts are a collage of rants,
poetry, tales, and reminiscences mixed
in with little known music and talk from
over 1,000 tapes of everything under
the sun, from tramping and labor
(historic and contemporary ) to baseball
and old friends... from unreleased Lord
Buckley to animals, children, tall tales,
Paul Robeson, and most of what you
need to know about life on the open
road... and always music.

Our hope is that The Long Memory Project will be the
building block towards establishing a permanent,
non-profit archive for the works of Bruce "Utah" Phillips
that will be easily accessible to the public. Some of the
projects currently underway are the republication of
Utah's original song book "Starlight On The Rails",
making the one hundred episodes of "Loafer's Glory"
available for download and rebroadcast, and a tribute
CD from the artisans and organizers influenced by Utah
from the state that Bruce always considered home, Utah.
All the proceeds from these ongoing projects as well as
donations will be used for this sole purpose. A portion
will also go towards the day to day operations of the
Hospitality House A Community Shelter fo the Homeless.
