Woody Guthrie–a great music pioneer of the U.S. is deceased but his music is in a revival, which started with wire recordings of a concert, he performed at the YM-YWHA’s Fuld Hall in Newark, New Jersey, for about 25 people.

These two spools of wire recordings are the only extant examples of Woody performing live. The wire recordings were sent to the Woody Guthrie Archives in N.Y. in 2001, by Paul Bowerman. He had recorded Woody’s performance as well as other people during the period between the late 1940’s and the early 1950’s. It was his hobby.

The Foundation’s decision in 2003 to release the recordings for the public to enjoy was a boon for Woody fans. Eighteen wired tracks were cleaned and edited by Airshow Mastering. These tracks offer songs, stories, and conversation.

The new release also includes songs by Jorge Arevalo Mateus, previously unpublished photos of Woody and his wife, Marjorie, and technical explanations of the restoration procedure.

More concerning Woody’s revival will be published here soon.

Examples: Woody and the Dropkick Murphys, Woody and the
Klezmatics etc.
