Short story:
In his final recording session for Decca Records in the USA, Woody Guthrie records an alternative version of This Land Is Your Land, featuring amended lyrics. He also records a childrens' song, Kissin' On. Guthrie is, by this time, suffering from Huntington's Chorea. In 1992, the session producer, Milt Gabler, will admit that had he known how ill Guthrie was, he never would have scheduled a session.
