With a heavy focus on social justice, Woody Guthrie's influential catalog of folk tunes spans hundreds of songs. His cleverness rings out on “Talkin' Dust Bowl Blues,” the tale of a hard-luck farmer headed to the West Coast. Using wit and an instinctual knack for storytelling, Guthrie could enrapture with an outlaw yarn like “Jesse James” or a relationship drama like “Gypsy Davy” with just a broke-in acoustic guitar accompanying him.
