Mainstream music today often doesn’t include folk music. But before great folk artists like Bob Dylan and Ramblin Jack Elliot popularized the genre to mainstream audiences, there was Woody Guthrie. He is still considered to be one of the most influential and significant figures in American folk music. Great songwriters like Johnny Cash, Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan, John Mellencamp, and Pete Seeger have all acknowledged Guthrie as a major influence in their work. Guthrie's music and work have not only inspired several generations musically, but also politically. Guthrie lived a hard life, and that hard life during the Great Depression highly influenced his music. Here are the tragic details.
