When Woody Guthrie was singing hillbilly songs on a little Los Angeles radio station in the late 1930s he used to mail out a small mimeographed songbook to listeners who wanted the words to his songs. On the bottom of one page appeared the following: This song is Copyrighted in U.S., under Seal of Copyright #154085, for a period of 28 years, and anybody caught singin' it without our permission, will be mighty good friends of our'n, cause we don't give a dern. Publish it. Write it. Sing it. Swing to it. Yodel it. We wrote it, that's all we wanted to do - Pete Seeger, on Woody, June 67

A small record company in Toronto was offering acoustic videos on the cheap.  I took the plunge.  Hope you enjoy.

Nice Nick. I'm digging watching you develop your right hand. Relaxed and loose allows you to have the power when you want it, eh? 'Course those strong bass player's hands help. I did enjoy that.

Its a consummate performance.  Confident strong vocal on a song where that seems to me to be crucial.
