We are so pleased to announce that

THE LIVE WIRE:
Woody Guthrie in Performance 1949

Release Date: September 6, 2007

won the 2008 Grammy for Best Historical Album!

THE LIVE WIRE is uniquely significant, being the first available recording ever to feature Woody Guthrie in a live performance! Master restoration producers Steve Rosenthal and Jamie Howarth worked the near impossible task of bringing this most difficult "antique" wire recording to audio life and listenability.
