Mark Clark 'Woody Guthrie, American Radical' (30) RE: 'Woody Guthrie, American Radical' 14 Jun 11


Great to see this. I've just arranged to pick up my hard bound copy at a nearby B&N. Can't wait to dig in.

I never met Woody but I did get to meet Marjorie in Chicago years ago. I was introduced to folk songs by a man, Dwight Saunders, who knew both Woody and Hudie and used to learn and share songs with them both in NYC. I think it was before Woody had been diagnosed with Huntington's Chorea. He described Woody's behavior sometimes as intoxicated but realized later it was probably the disease.

My whole outlook (musically and beyond) was shaped by Woody through Dwight. I read everything about Woody I can get my hands on.
