Woodrow Wilson Guthrie was een Amerikaanse singer-songwriter en folkmuzikant wiens uitgebreide muzikale nalatenschap honderden liederen en ballades omvat. Beïnvloed door zijn ervaringen tijdens het Dust Bowl-tijdperk, bestrijkt zijn werk een breed scala aan thema's, van politieke commentaren tot traditionele folkdeuntjes. Guthrie trad gedurende zijn hele leven onophoudelijk op, met zijn gitaar die destijds de slogan "Deze machine doodt fascisten" droeg. Ondanks zijn ziekte werd hij een belangrijk boegbeeld van de folkbeweging en een inspiratie voor een nieuwe generatie muzikanten.
This well-known folk song is accompanied by a tribute from folksinger Pete Seeger, the musical notation, and a biographical scrapbook with photographs
