Prior to becoming a vehicle for social protest in the 60s, folk music was the sound of America s heartland which focused on the organic relationship between singer and song. The Oklahoma native, Woody Guthrie, mastered this relationship better than any of his peers, composing hundreds of songs many of which remain standards to this day including Sourwood, Pretty Boy Floyd, and Buffalo Skinners.
Tragically under appreciated early on, today he is revered by artists of many other genres as an iconoclastic songwriter and critically acclaimed as the most important American folk music artist of the first half of the 20th century and . The Very Best Of Woody Guthrie is intended to be a songbook for sing-a-long gatherings of friends and families just as Woody used to compose for a small Los Angeles radio station in the 30s. At the bottom of the lyrical pamphlets that he published for listening audiences, Woody gave a new perspective on music publishing, one of today s hottest debates: This song is copyrighted in U.S....anybody caught singin it without our permission will be mighty good friends of ours cause we don t give a dern. Publish it. Write it. Sing it. Swing it. Yodel it. We wrote it, that’s all we wanted to do. Thank you, Woody...we will.
