2nd part of the In Prison set. Music recorded in prison, some interviews with inmates, work songs, concert and in this set a few songs that talk about jail, but are not recorded in jail. Most of the music is American, which is pretty logical, as there’s a lot of archival done, this in combination with 25% of all the inmates in the world being in American cells. There’s some Australian music and also a great Russian inmate Oidupaa Vladimir Oiun, who’s record ‘Divine music from a jail” is highly recommended. The rest of the playlist is as follows..
