Ramblin’ Jack Elliott - I Stand Alone

Ramblin’ Jack Elliott - I Stand AloneStill ramblin’ at nearly 75, Elliott’s been around since Woody Guthrie. A onetime cowboy turned hobo, he’s hung out with beatniks and Deadheads and starred in Bob Dylan’s Rolling Thunder roadshow. His flat-picking is vintage folk-blues and his voice, now deliciously craggy, bears the mark of many traveled miles on songs like “Arthritis Blues” and “Leaving Cheyenne.” Despite the presence of fans like Lucinda Williams and Red Hot Chili Peppers’ Flea, Elliott, a bona fide living legend, owns the whole spotlight.
