Woody Guthrie discography
- Woody Guthrie discography
The discography of Woody Guthrie is somewhat difficult to construct. The published recordings are culled from a series of recording sessions in the 1940s and 1950s, at the time they were recorded they were not set down for a particular album so are found here and there over several albums and not exactly in chronological order. The more detailed section on recording sessions lists the song by recording date.
elected published discography
:
1940, RCA Victor Sessions, Dust Bowl Ballads
Keynote Recordings
1944 & 1945, The Asch Recordings
Possibly Guthrie's most famous recordings, conducted over a series of days by Moses "Moe" Asch in 1944 and 1945. They were issued on a variaty of labels under Asch, Asch-Stinson, Asch-Signature-Stinson, Disc, Folkways and Verve/Folkways.
Many recordings have unknown session dates. These are included in a list available at the United States Library of Congress titled "Surviving Recordings in the Smithsonian Folklife Archive Made by Woody Guthrie for Moses Asch". Moe Asch says Woody's kids song were recorded sometime in early 1947 and the Sacco and Vanzetti ballads were recorded Jauary 1947.
1947 Songs to Grow On
The recoding dates for the Songs to Grow on series of children's song are mostly lost due to the record keeping of Moe Asch, but the tracks are included here as they are some of Guthrie's most well known tracks. In this case the Date is the release date of the original 78 records.
