- Comments
- "One by One" was one of the supposedly "unfinished" songs with lyrics that had been "unearthed" by Woody Guthrie's family and given to Billy Bragg to complete (which led to Bragg and Jeff Tweedy (Wilco frontman) including the "finished" songs on the historically important 1998 Mermaid Avenue album). However, in this case, Kate Wolf had recorded One by One back in 1978 so clearly the lyrics to this song were publicly available years earlier. Tweedy registered himself as the composer on this Work but it clearly had already been published with music years prior and the Bragg/Wilco version doesn't warrant adaptation status.
