Guthrie/Geer - Bound for Glory: Songs and Stories [CD]

Woody's songs have a way of taking hold, because they speak in the voice of the people that you can't beat down, you can't scare and you can't starve out. They are songs with the rhythm of work in them, with the echo of anger against poverty and meanness. Songs filled with the determination of a people to damn well endure, writes Millard Lampell in this album's liner notes.
