John Sprung’s tribute to folk singers who have passed on to their final reward, “The Folk Singer’s Sweet Bye-and-Bye,” (from his latest album, “Side Effects,”) is the Number One song in sales on CD Baby among songs in the Political Folk category.

It was his hope that “Side Effects” would be available to listeners on a broad scale, and he is very pleased that CD Baby has provided this opportunity. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
