Dust Bowl Ballads

Album by Woody Guthrie

Dust Bowl Ballads is an album by American folk singer Woody Guthrie, released in 1940. Musically it presents spare solo folk arrangements centred on acoustic guitar and narrative vocals, drawing on country and folk traditions to document the Dust Bowl and Great Depression, and it stands as a key early example in Guthrie's career of topical songwriting that influenced later American folk music.
