About this product
Product Information
In 1941, Woody Guthrie wrote 26 songs in 30 days--including classics like "Roll On Columbia" and "Pastures of Plenty"--when he was hired by the Bonneville Power Administration to promote the benefits of cheap hydroelectric power, irrigation, and the Grand Coulee Dam. Timed to celebrate the 75th anniversary of this project, KEXP DJ Greg Vandy takes readers inside the unusual partnership between one of America's great folk artists and the federal government, and shows how the American folk revival was a response to hard times. 26 Songs In 30 Days plunges deeply into the historical context of the time and the progressive politics that embraced Social Democracy during an era in which the United States had been severely suffering from The Great Depression. And though this is a musical history of a vibrant American musical icon and a specific part of the country, it couldn't be a better reminder of how timeless and expansive such topics are in today's political discourse.

"I can't get enough of Woody Guthrie, and Greg Vandy reveals him afresh in the context of a project that piques the best in Woody, and maybe the best in America. Read, learn, enjoy--and sing." --Robert Gordon, author of Respect Yourself, "I can't get enough of Woody Guthrie, and Greg Vandy reveals him afresh in the context of a project that piques the best in Woody, and maybe the best in America. Read, learn, enjoy--and sing." -- Robert Gordon, author of Respect Yourself "26 Songs in 30 Days is a valuable addition to the Woody Guthrie library, not to mention a great read. Greg Vandy's love of the topic reveals itself on every page. The story he tells provides insight and clarity about a period in the life of Guthrie that hasn't gotten its due--until now" -- Robert Santelli, author of This Land Is Your Land: Woody Guthrie and the Journey of an American Folk Song "Greg Vandy, known for his engaging KEXP roots-music show, "The Roadhouse," lovingly unravels that tale in this cleanly written, handsomely designed and liberally illustrated book about Guthrie's month-plus tenure based in Portland in 1941. In the bargain, Vandy contextualizes Guthrie's story with a ton of other fascinating facts about Northwest history." -- The Seattle Times "Greg Vandy's 26 Songs in 30 Days examines the period in 1941 when Woody Guthrie spent a month writing a song a day about hydroelectric power, irrigation, and the Grand Coulee Dam for the Bonneville Power Administration, and is a fascinating glimpse of the musician's life as well as the social politics of the time." -- Largehearted Boy "[Greg Vandy's] latest work focuses on Woody Guthrie's prolific songwriting career, and the confluence of American folk artistry and the hard times of the twentieth century in the United States." -- The Stranger "One of KEXP's most noted DJs explores the relationship between Guthrie and the Bonneville Power Administration that yielded timeless folk songs." -- Shelf Talk, The Seattle Public Library "Greg Vandy's "26 Songs in 30 Days" is a fascinating book that explores the folk musician Woody Guthrie's month-long employment by the Bonneville Power Administration in 1941 when Guthrie was assigned to write one song per day while being driven all along the Columbia River." -- The Grand Coulee Star " 26 Songs in 30 Days... [is] the revelatory history of Guthrie's work as a commissioned songwriter for the Pacific NW..." -- Northwest Music Scene " 26 Songs In 30 Days plunges deeply into the historical context of the time and the progressive politics that embraced Social Democracy during an era in which the United States had been severely suffering from The Great Depression. And though this is a musical history of a vibrant American musical icon and a specific part of the country, it couldn't be a better reminder of how timeless and expansive such topics are in today's political discourse." -- The Columbia Riverkeeper "75 years ago, America's greatest folk singer spent a month in the Northwest where he wrote some of his most famous songs. Now [ 26 Songs in 30 Days ] tells the story of Woody Guthrie's Columbia River song cycle." --Evening Magazine "Vandy takes readers inside the unusual partnership between one of America's great folk artists and the federal government, and shows how the first American folk revival of the 1930's was a response to hard times." --The West Seattle Herald, "I can't get enough of Woody Guthrie, and Greg Vandy reveals him afresh in the context of a project that piques the best in Woody, and maybe the best in America. Read, learn, enjoy--and sing." --Robert Gordon, author of Respect Yourself "26 Songs in 30 Days is a valuable addition to the Woody Guthrie library, not to mention a great read.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
