  • Visiting Woody Guthrie at Greystone

    From James Zadok@21:1/5 to All on Thu Apr 28 13:50:59 2022
    Stumbled upon an interesting YouTube video with Jahanara Romney (aka Bonnie Beecher) recalling her visits with Dylan to visit Woody Guthrie at Greystone Hospital in New Jersey in the early 1960s.

    Delightful. Thanks, James. I loved how, when someone fetches Woody's guitar, since he wanted to play a song on it (which turned out to be "Hard Travelin'") the fetcher says to Woody, "I didn't know you play guitar, Woody." Also Woody's reaction when
    Jahanara tells Woody she likes Josh White (who was a witness in the HUAC hearings). Oh, and when she is asked why Dylan brought her with him, she said she thought it might have been because nobody in Minnesota believed him when he said he visited Woody,
    so Jahanara could be his witness.

    For those who may not know, Jahanara is married to Hugh Romney, aka
    Wavy Gravy.
