Product Description
Released in coordination with the Woody Guthrie Archives, this 4 disc boxed set is the definitive edition of Woody Guthrie¹s mid-1940s recordings. The sound quality is superb, taken from newly discovered original metal masters. The set includes many of Woody's best-known songs, along with traditional material and collaborations with fellow guitarist Cisco Houston and harmonica player Sonny Terry. To complement and enhance enjoyment of the recordings, the discs are packaged in a replica of a vintage suitcase, complete with handle and latches. Inside the box are a full-color 68 page book that includes extensive notes and many rare or previously unpublished photos, as well as illustrations and illuminated lyric sheets by Guthrie himself. Also included are facsimiles of Woody's business card, a postcard sent from Florida to his wife, and a booking card from the 1940s.

I've got the Asch recordings, LOC set with Lomax, and Live Wire. I've been waiting for a roundup of tracks not available on these sets. Let's hope this is it.

I got this box in the mail today.It is incredible.The valise box is a little over the top, but the book that comes with it is a fascinating read.Anyone who is into audio mastering and restoration would love the book.The story of how these metal masters where found is even better.Woody has never been heard in this quality.Amazing!
