Various Artists - Woody Guthrie All-Star Tribute Concert, Hollywood Bowl, Los Angeles, CA, 9-12-1970

In 1967, legendary folk singer Woody Guthrie died after being bedridden with health problems for many years. In early 1968, there was a tribute concert for him in New York City. Then, in 1970, there was a second tribute concert for him in Los Angeles, which is presented here. I'm not sure why it was thought a second concert was needed, but perhaps it was for people on the West Coast. Highlights of both concerts were combined onto one album, which was released in 1972. 

Like the 1968 show, this one had spoken word recitations between many of the songs. In my opinion, the music bears many repeat listenings, but I get bored with the spoken word parts. So this is a version of just the music, exactly the same as I did with my earlier post of the 1968 concert. Decades later, both concerts were officially released in full, so this recording comes from that.

Many of the musical acts in this concert were the same as the one in the 1968. Arlo Guthrie, Richie Havens, Pete Seeger, and Odetta took part in both. However, the undoubted biggest name of the 1968 concert was Bob Dylan, and he wasn't present here. But another big star in the folk music world, Joan Baez, was only present here. That was also the case for Ramblin' Jack Elliott, Country Joe McDonald, and Earl Robinson. This concert also was half an hour longer.

If you prefer always listening to this with the spoken word recitations, you have the official album version for that. I'm just giving you a different option.

This album is an hour and 30 minutes long.

The cover image is from this exact concert. From right to left, that's Richie Havens, Joan Baez, Odetta, Pete Seeger, and Arlo Guthrie. It's from the final encore. However, I had to do some Photoshop editing to get everyone to fit in with a decent size. The singers were standing with some big gaps of empty space between the microphones, so I moved them much closer together.
