Country Joe McDonald's connection to Guthrie is strong. He grew up with Woody Guthrie music in his household, was asked to participate in the National Steinbeck Center and Smithsonian Institution's traveling exhibition "This Land Is Your Land: The Life and Legacy of Woody Guthrie."  He also was a part of a 1975 Tribute Woody Guthrie concert at the Hollywood Bowl; he was asked to put music to one of the many Woody Guthrie lyrics that had no recorded music. McDonald has produced an album of Woody's son Joady Guthrie singing his own original songs; he recorded his own album titled Thinking Of Woody Guthrie, which Woody's wife Marjorie Guthrie said was one of the finest Woody Guthrie albums ever made.  Over the years he has performed his tribute many times in England and in the United States. McDonald says that each time I find something new about Woody and about myself. The audience makes similar discoveries as well.
