A new Woody Guthrie album of recordings made in 1951 with 22 previously unreleased recordings including 13 songs never before released will have their official premiere soon, 58 years after the death of Guthrie.
The Woody Guthrie estate will release ‘Woody at Home, Vol. 1 and Vol. 2’ on 14 August 2025.
The release includes Woody’s home recordings from 1951-1952 recorded in his apartment in Beach Haven, Brooklyn. They were made as a demo for his new publisher. The recordings have been enhanced with today’s technology to clean up the home-made tapes for this release.
‘Woody at Home, Vol. 1 and Vol. 2’ is produced and transferred by Steve Rosenthal, Jessica Thompson is the sound engineer, and Anna Canoni co-produced the record. She is Woody Guthrie’s granddaughter and the president of Woody Guthrie Publications.
