Sharon Jones Sings Woody Guthrie

[c.n.]

If you are so inclined, please go to
http://www.amoeba.com/live-shows/videos/sharon-jones-and-the-dap-kings.html
and give Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings a listen, as they rework Woody
Guthrie's AMERICAN CLASSIC "This Land Is My Land" into their own knee deep,
40 weight groove. (click on that tune in the right hand panel to get right
to it).

GOOD GOD Y'ALL ! imo.

Somewhere, somehow, you just got to know Woody is looking down, listening,
and smiling, because once again his tune--and its basic MESSAGE--shines
through, and through, and through....and there isn't a redneck, a red state,
a red scare, or anything else that can keep it from being so.

That, my friends (and others), IS what makes America great, not its ability
to wield the biggest, meanest stick--or to govern from the rich mans
billfold (and selling that as Democracy).

[Art Schuna]

This song is in the opening sequence for the soundtrack of the movie Up
In The Air which is in the theaters now. I think it is available on a
45 on Daptone
Records website if you need an audio version of the tune.
