Love Woody Guthrie who was a great fan of the Carter Family and would use many of their melodies for his great lyrics.... This one uses the Carter Family's Wabash Cannonball.

It was 1944. Who didn't smoke back then?

Sometimes I would rather live back in the days when black was black and white was white. In our age of grey we've forgotten the naivite of what made people great and causes just and why we're in it together if you agree or no.

its too bad that for an album cover for a person that already was known to be a great creator of melodies and lyrics that all out off pictures they could have picked from--those chose a sweaty face picture with a cigarette hanging out of his mouth

In the misty crystal glitter Of that wild and windward spray Men have fought the pounding waters And met a watery grave

Can you imagine a song that does embody the American Dream more than this? Imagine yourself standing on the European shore without a dime to your own and just the shirt on your back at the turn of the 19th century and but the promise you can make a living whenyou just worked hard enough. What the Joe Hill went wrong? Der Traum is aus zu dieser Zeit, mach dich bereit.Für den Kampf ums Paradies.
