Title: Americana at its Best
Review: Singer, songwriter and more importantly a voice from the past depicting our nation as it were from the 1920's through the dust bowl and depression 30's to the early years of World War II.Woody Guthrie's autobiographical Bound for Glory should be considered a classic, if not already. A literary work of art.The first half of his biography enlightens the reader as to Woody's many adventures, tragedies and general life as a youth during the 20's and 30's. Some sad, some spirited and above all told with vehemence.The remainder of his book is a get-down and travel throughout America by thumb and boxcar, witnessing the poverty, mistreatment and overall life on the rails, farms, "jungle" camps, skid row and waterfronts. A soulful perspective of what existence was really like from one who lived it so long ago.His songs reflecting this era will live on for many years to come. A gem.
