Free Music Notes for Dust Bowl Ballads
Free Music Review: American Folk
Hit: 5 Stars
Woody Guthrie has inspired so many artists, it would be remiss to not have him in your collection. The recordings are a little dated, but it takes nothing away from the rawness of the music and the story telling in the lyrics. You can't help but be reminded of 'The Grapes of Wrath' when you listen to this album and you can hear Dylan, Springsteen and Seeger have been influenced by this artist more than any other when they perform their folk and blues music. This is not always an easy listen, but it is always a rewarding one!

Free Music Review: GODFATHER OF FOLK
Hit: 5 Stars
I admit it. I'm a folkhound from the get go and I love this collection. The selection of songs not to mention the strong lyrics and emotions they evoke is truly a masterpiece. Woody Guthrie was a musical purist in the truest sense of the word. He had a real gift for stirring one's conscience. His songs were widely played at unions, peace marches and other gatherings for generations. He is the Balladeer of the People; the Voice for All. Please, please, listen to this collection. I really think you will be glad you did. This is truly high caliber work.

Woody Guthrie Dustbowl ballads is a historic folk classic. Woodys playing is good on gutiar and harmonica his voice is steady the songs are real good for the time. Woddy tells the story of the dustbowl with a keen sense of humor mostly. Pretty boy floyd Blowin down the road vigalanteman and the TomJoad songs show some anger. but Dirty old dust Dustpneumonia blues and Talkin dustbowl blues are funny. I aint got no home is my favorite. The booklet really is interesting Woody tells his story. im glad i got this.Great way to get to know Woody Guthrie.Free Music Review: For the eager listener, this is a miracle

If you're willing to listen and imagine the time, place and circumstance of this recording, its as remarkable a musical thing can be. This very modest voice coming out of what must seemed an Old testament plague, to tell us stories, sing us a simple song. It is almost like the world was starting again, with its uniquely American voice to piece itself back together, without the trappings of history beyond the memories of this man and his companions. Pretty damn beautiful, Woody.Free Music Review: Awesome

In the best sense of the word, this collection will make you laugh, make you think and just put you in the frame of mind that allows you to appreciate the historical significance of this wonderful music by an incredibly important American artist.
Woody Guthrie captures the depression era in his lyrics and voice in a way that nothing else does. Absolutely amazing stuff.
