This is an incomplete listing of Woody Guthrie recordings
available on CD. You may find other CDs in some record stores, but
most others have poor sound quality or are illegal, or both.
Essentially, only Rounder Record Corp. and Smithsonian Folkways
Recordings offer clearly legitimate recordings. Also, to my knowledge,
any other available CDs offer very few songs that are not on one of the
following discs.
