Bernie Sanders recorded a Folk album

I hope everyone can take this with a little humor as it is intended (by me), I found this endearing:

Yes, dear reader, we here at Seven Days have been puzzling over the same question that is keeping you up at night: If Bernie Sanders runs for president, what will he choose as his campaign song?
...

Well, a Sanders campaign theme song could be music recorded by … Bernie Sanders.

In 1987, while serving as Burlington’s mayor, Sanders recorded an album of folk classics for the defunct BurlingTown Recordings label. We found it in the archive search for "Bernie Beat," the new digital guide to Sanders' colorful political career that launched today on the Seven Days website. Find it at Berniebeat.com.
