Awesome tribute to Woody Guthrie

Making Light has an awesome tribute in honor of Woody Guthrie's birthday - he'd be 100 if he were still alive. It includes the text on the copyright of "This Land is Your Land" ( "...anybody caught singin it without our permission, will be mighty good friends of ourn,...") and an presumably excellent version by Mojo Nixon & Skid Roper. (I so need to get new headphones so I can listen to this stuff at the library! *sigh*)
