    I just picked up the Asch Recordings Vol. 1 and damn I love this guy. You can really see how much he influenced Dylan. Talking Fishing Blues sounds so much like I Shall Be Free. I'd really like to pick up more of his stuff. Also I'm interested in Happy Traum, anyone know any of his stuff?

    On "Runnin' Down The Road" (I think that's the title) many of Arlo's songs were written by his father. (Originally done by him)

    Woody Guthrie just might be 1 of the most important artist of the 20th centrury, and one of the most overlooked.


    This machine kills fascists......
