Read the following passage from “This Land Was Made for You and Me: The Life and Songs of Woody Guthrie” by Elizabeth Partridge:
In April 1944 Woody recorded “This Land is Your Land.” When his good friend Pete Seeger heard the recording, he thought the song was one of Woody’s weaker attempts. Too simple, thought Pete, an accomplished folk singer himself. Later he would say, “That shows how wrong you can be.” Over the years he watched as “This Land is Your Land” went from “one guitar picker to another,” gathering momentum as it made its way across America and out into the world. After Woody’s death in 1967, the song kept steadily spreading. Which of the following is considered common knowledge?
