Woody Guthrie home recordings released for the first time
One of the most influential musicians of the 20th Century, Woody Guthrie inspired Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Johnny Cash and many more.
Considered a left-leaning political poet, Guthrie became the voice of American folk music for three decades until his death in 1967.
Never-before-heard home recordings of Guthrie are now being released, more than half a century after his death.
Weekend's Rebecca Kesby spoke to Guthrie's granddaughter Anna Canoni and his daughter Nora Guthrie about the new album, 'Woody at Home'.
