Elliott interprets many of the most popular items in the
Guthrie repertoire, including "So Long," "This Land Is Your Land," "Pretty Boy Floyd," "Talking Dust Bowl," and "Philadelphia Lawyer," on the recording that is most representative of his role in popularizing the work of his hero. It's been combined with another early-'60s Prestige album,
Ramblin' Jack Elliott, on Fantasy's
Hard Travelin' CD reissue.
