Dappled Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 Woody Guthrie is soooo close, Edna! He wrote 'This machine kills fascists' on his guitar. Who copied him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edna Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 Wild guess... Pete Seeger? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dappled Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 Ok, let's rephrase the answer: "He made his TV debut on 30 January 1965. Unusual for pop programs of this time, where performers typically lip-synched to a pre-recorded backing track, he played and sang live. His guitar was emblazoned with the words 'This Machine Kills'—a direct reference to Woody Guthrie, whose own guitar bore the famous slogan 'This Machine Kills Fascists'."

edna Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 (edited) Steve Jordan? Isn´t he the guy who plays accordion on "True Stories"? On the song "Radiohead", I believe? Yes, Mr. Tyme. You´re up. Oh, you already did. Hmm... I know who plays guitar on that song... so I´ll let someone else answer.
