Woody Guthrie “This Land Is Your Land”
A rebel, but with talent. Woody Guthrie was a master storyteller who had the guts to stand up to injustice, but the charm and sly wit to do it without letting it become more important than the music. Melody first, son. Then message. This song is a great example of the simple beauty of his songs and his love of America. But just like Woody himself, it becomes more complex the longer you listen to it.
