Sean reviewed Woody Guthrie by Joe Klein
Review of 'Woody Guthrie' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
ever since i borrowed/stole my mom's box of springsteen's "live 75/85" and heard the boss stutter out "there's this fellow joe klein who wrote this book called woody guthrie a life and it's, it's a really good book" i wanted to find time for it. and i did, and it was well worth it. frightfully sad at times (particularly after hearing the billy bragg/wilco version of "one by one) and frightfully funny at others, really pretty important to anybody making american music i'd guess.
