Yes thanks a lot @batgirl, I'd heard a lot of mentions about Woodie Guthrie over the years but due to age and planetary isolation had missed out on hearing his music. These threads have given me more context as to how things like Woodstock started, it's nice seeing the pure roots of folk music before the drugs got involved.
