About "This Train is Bound for Glory" by Ramblin' Jack Elliott
Ramblin' Jack Elliott turns Woody Guthrie's 'This Train is Bound for Glory' into a living-room sermon at the Kennedy Center, his weathered voice a boxcar rattling through decades of American myth. The live setting strips away polish, leaving only the locomotive rhythm of conviction and the ghost of Guthrie riding shotgun.
