I also really appreciated getting to read the blurb on Albee below this.

I hadn't known that Gordon performed any of Woody's songs!


YouTube - Woody Guthrie - 1913 Massacre

"I'm no singer." LOLOLOLOL. Would love to have heard so many of those unrecorded songs ("If You're Leaving" and "1913 Massacre") - sometimes I wish I had a time machine and could go back and secretly record it all as it happened. What a treasure trove that would be.

thanks for locating and sharing these, char! :)

i think these and other interviews (like Ring Ring...) deserve to be off the Home page or separated from the photo vault...i'd hate to see these get buried in this forum

one day soon i'm going to find a printer, relax in silence with a jug of coffee, and read em all...you could compile an unofficial book of just GL interviews...of course, you first have to finish transcribing all of the audio ones out here ;)

I'm hoping to arrange print articles/reviews/interviews etc. into one forum.
perhaps another thread would be for audio/tv interviews..
get yer arse out here, bring that coffee and help me!
