Peter Grahame plays & sings "This train is bound for glory" ... traditional gospel country blues finger style ... attributed to Woody Guthrie

Still travelling so I'm running out of pre-recorded videos. I've decided to put up another track from my third CD, "Gospel Ship". This is the third track on the album. This well-known gospel song is often wrongly attributed to Woody Guthrie, perhaps because he used it for the title of his autobiography, "Bound For Glory". This was actually one of the first songs I put up on YouTube, with the old black guitar I played a few years ago. For this track I used a steel string guitar, belonging to ...

girls — his wife, Sara, and their sister-in-law, Maybelle — the Carter Family sang a pure, simple harmony that influenced not only the numerous other family groups of the '30s and the '40s, but folk, bluegrass, and rock musicians like Woody Guthrie, Bill Monroe, the Kingston Trio, Doc Watson, Bob Dylan, and Emmylou Harris, to mention just a few. It's unlikely that bluegrass music would have existed without the Carter Family. AP, the family patriarch, collected hundreds of British/ ...

considered a folk singer although her music has strayed from folk considerably after the 1960s, encompassing everything from rock and pop to country and gospel. Although a songwriter herself, especially in the mid-1970s, Baez is most often regarded as an interpreter of other people's work, covering songs by The Beatles, Jackson Browne, Dylan, Woody Guthrie, The Rolling Stones, Pete Seeger, Paul Simon, Stevie Wonder and many other artists. In more recent years, she has found success ...

melody bears similarities to a traditional English ballad, Matty Groves.[1][2] Roy Acuff, who recorded the song commercially on November 3, 1938, may have learned the song from Clarence Ashley with whom he sometimes performed. In 1941, Woody Guthrie recorded a version. A recording made by Josh White in 1947 was released on Mercury Records in 1950. In late 1948 Lead Belly recorded a version called "In New Orleans" in the sessions that later became the album Lead Belly's Last Sessions (1994 ...

When Woody Guthrie visited the migrant camps in the autumn of 1938, he found that one of the more popular songs was a gospel hymn called "This World Is Not My Home," which had been made popular by the Carter Family. Woody felt that this song was telling the migrants not to take action to help themselves but to wait to be rewarded in the next life and accept their poverty and ill health. He rewrote it with words that changed this meaning around and called for action. I think this is the 23rd ...

Guthrie's "I Ain't Got No Home". He felt that songs like this encouraged the poor migrant workers to accept their fate and not take action (such as striking) to improve their lot in this world, as they would find their reward in Heaven. His song reversed the message he saw in this one and encouraged workers to aim for a better world in this lifetime.

Probably recorded around the early 1940's. This is not a gospel song but the usual humorous social commentary one would expect from Woody. Featured here are of course his close friends - Leadbelly (vocal-guitar) Sonny Terry (Harmonica-wooos! and vocals) and Cisco Houston( guitar vocals) This song kind of points out some people and situations such as- Freedom of speech, homelessness, religious hypocrisy- etc. Personally the "preacher" verse is my favorite. lol And Leadbelly's guitar is very ...
