Ray ArloArlo Guthrie, born on July 10, 1947, is an influential American folk singer-songwriter recognized for his longstanding commitment to social justice and storytelling in music, inheriting a similar ethos from his father, Woody Guthrie. His most famous work, "Alice's Restaurant Massacree," highlights his signature style of satirical talking blues and has become emblematic of the 1960s counterculture, particularly around Thanksgiving. Throughout his career, Guthrie has been a prominent figure in folk music, achieving notable success with songs like "City of New Orleans." Despite health challenges prompting retirement from touring, he announced plans to resume performances in 2023. (Source: Wikipedia)
