(The companion volumes are This Land is Your Land, Muleskinner Blues, and Hard Travelin'.) Recorded for producer and label head Moses Asch mostly in 1944 and '45, these songs are a mix of adopted traditionals such as \"Buffalo Skinners,\" \"Red River Valley,\" and Buffalo Gals\" along with originals, including \"Pretty Boy Floyd\" (Guthrie's ode to a \"modern\" outlaw) and \"Blowing Down That Old Dusty Road.\" The Oklahoman is best known for his Dust Bowl ballads and broadsides, but no less an authority than folklorist John A. Lomax considered Guthrie the finest cowboy singer of his generation, and, indeed, his nothing-fancy phrasing suits these tunes to a T. Splendid liner notes make this handsome package all the more valuable for aficionados of Guthrie and the Wild West alike. --Steven Stolder\n\nProduct Description\n\nThis is the fourth and final volume of the series, The Asch Recordings, drawn from Woody Guthrie's remarkable 1940's sessions for Folkways founder, Moses Asch.
