Songs of Woody Guthrie, Part 2 – "New" Songs from the Woody Guthrie Archives
The theme for this edition of Stranger Songs is "Songs of Woody Guthrie, Part 2 – 'New' Songs from the Woody Guthrie Archives."
In the 1990s, Nora Guthrie, Woody Guthrie’s daughter who was then maintaining the Woody Guthrie Archives, discovered the lyrics to literally thousands of songs that Woody Guthrie wrote that he never set to music or whose tunes were never recorded and lost. Nora began to distribute sets of lyrics to contemporary musicians she thought would bring these songs to life. On this show, we’re listening to some of those songs.
