[78-L] Woody Guthrie (includes a 78!)

it was under $92 at CDUniverse on pre-order.  Probably will be available for that or less after
the initial mad rush to buy the set.... (-:

It has the COMPLETE LC recordings (much but not all issued on LP-Elektra and CD-Rounder in the past), war effort recordings, the
Bonneville films, etc.  Lots of rare barely known stuff.

It is interesting to see that folks on this list who were NOT aware of this set - wouda thunk we would all be on
the Smithsonian-Folkways mailing list.

The 78 looks like a microgroove, but not sure - I see nothing in the package to indicate what mil stylus it should
be played with.

BTW - are you aware of the WIRE Guthrie recordings of a live concert???  It was issued in an elaborate package
as a fundraiser for the Guthrie Archive, but reissued in a standard CD (and affordable) package by Rounder a while
ago.  I think it is essential listening for anyone interested in Guthrie.

Best wishes, Thomas.

 From Steve's review:
"There is also a 10-in vinyl 78-rpm record of Bob Dylan singing Woody's "VD
City" on one side and a previously unreleased version of "The Biggest Thing
That Man Has Ever Done" on the reverse."

if microgroove it might be 7 inch size too. I just can't tell from the picture.
