Woody Guthrie

Sobre:

"Two Good Men", com credito para Woody Guthrie. Essa gravacao aparece relacionada ao lancamento "Original Folk: The Best of Woody Guthrie" (ano

2008, pais GB, status Official). Woodrow Wilson "Woody" Guthrie foi um cantor e compositor americano de folk music. Seu legado musical é composto por centenas de músicas, baladas e obras improvisadas que abrangem desde temas políticos, músicas tradicionais até canções infantis. Guthrie tocava frequentemente com sua guitarra que possuía o slogan "This machine kills fascists". É talvez melhor conhecido por sua canção "This Land Is Your Land", regularmente cantada nas escolas americanas. Muitas de suas músicas gravadas estão arquivadas na Biblioteca do Congresso, nos Estados Unidos. Robert "Bob" Dylan é um cantor, compositor, escritor, ator, pintor e artista visual norte-americano, e uma importante figura na cultura popular há mais de sessenta anos. Grande parte do seu trabalho mais célebre data da década de 1960, quando canções como "Blowin' in the Wind" (1963) e "The Times They Are a Changin'" (1964) se tornaram hinos dos movimentos pelos direitos civis e de oposição à Guerra do Vietnã. Suas letras durante esse período incorporaram uma ampla gama de influências políticas, sociais, filosóficas e literárias, desafiaram as convenções da música pop e apelaram à crescente contracultura. Por conta disso, a música folk, na cultura norte-americana, atingiu o auge de popularidade nas décadas de 1950 e 1960 e Bob Dylan incorporou as tensões dessa época da melhor forma, com foco nos detalhes e humor.
