    Bob Dylan was a big fan of Woody Guthrie. Woody played with black artists Lead Belly, Sonny Terry & Brownie McGee, Alec Sewart. Dylan was also a big fan of Ramblin' Jack Elliott who was also a huge Woody Guthrie fan. Cisco Houston played on a a lot of Guthries stuff along with playing his own.

    On Dylans first album he covers Blind Lemon Jeffersons..."Please See My Grave Is Kept Clean". On his Vanguard recordings (early on) Ramblin' Jack covers Blind Lemons classic "Black Snake Moan".

    So a cool mix...

    Blind Lemon Jefferson
    Lead Belly
    Woody Guthrie
    Sonny Terry & Brownie McGee
    Woody, Sonny & Alec Sewart
    Cisco Houston
    Ramblin' Jack Elliott
    Bob Dylan
    Kris Kristofferson...who played with Ramblin' Jack
    Dave Van Ronk...a big influense on everyone around that Greenwich Village scene of the early 60's. Like Dylan, Elliott.
    John Hammond...he just belongs as do the two below.

    Wish there was a recording of Guthrie singing this gem that he wrote. Tweedy does it service though.

    I expected that to suck, wrong. Not bad.

    Thought the Inside Llewyn Davis soundtrack was pretty solid
