Woody Guthrie
2/6/10 - Woody wrote a couple of Jackhammer songs. In this one Woody was impressed with the Jackhammer operators working on the Grand Coulee dam construction project in May 1941. He leaned heavily on an earlier Jackhammer song penned in New York City. Click through all five selections titled Winterfolk-22 to hear our entire show at this major Portland charity event.
