When Woody Guthrie’s ‘This Land Is Your Land’ went to school
In “This Land Is Your Land: Woody Guthrie and the Journey of an American Folksong” (Running Press, $ 24), writer and Grammy Museum Executive Director Robert Santelli traces the extraordinary daily life of what is arguably America’s finest-recognized and best-loved folk song, written by America’s biggest folk troubadour.
It’s prolonged been identified that Woody Guthrie wrote the song in 1940 as his reaction to — and dissatisfaction with — Irving Berlin’s “God Bless America, which became ubiquitous during the Depression, largely from Kate Smith’s signature recording and her countless performances on reside radio broadcasts.
Amongst the several examples of cultural detective work in Santelli’s book — published in conjunction with this year’s Woody Guthrie centennial — Santelli traces a journey that culminates in the song becoming sung by Pete Seeger and Bruce Springsteen at a 2009 inauguration concert for President Obama. Along the way, he also answers the query: How specifically how did “This Land Is Your Land” turn out to be component of the elementary college common repertoire, wherever just about each kid in the United States can sing it — or at least, the best-known components of it — by the time they are 7?
It partly can be traced to the inclusion of “This Land Is Your Land” on a 1951 album of children’s songs named “Songs to Develop On,” the third volume in a series of children’s music released by producer Moses Asch on his new Folkways record label.
Asch, who had created records with Seeger and Huddie “Lead Belly” Ledbetter and other folk and blues artists in New York City in the ’40s, initial met and recorded with Guthrie in 1944. He was so bowled more than by the top quality of Guthrie’s songs, which had not been captured extensively in recordings before that, that he acquired Guthrie to lay down dozens of tracks, such as “God Blessed America,” the song that eventually would come to be acknowledged as “This Land Is Your Land.”
