''Thinking of Woody Guthrie'' was released in 1969 by Vanguard Records and is the debut solo album of Country Joe McDonald, best known for his work with Country Joe & the Fish.〔 It was a different approach by McDonald to release a folk music and country album in the style of Woody Guthrie. Prior to this solo release, he was known to make albums in a psychedelic style with his band. The album was a tribute to the work of Woody Guthrie, a country and folk musician who died two years earlier. All of the tracks on the album were either composed or performed by Guthrie. McDonald was heavily influenced by Guthrie since he was a child. McDonald could recall his interest of Guthrie came first when his parents played Guthrie's first album, ''Dust Bowl Ballads''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Country Joe McDonald still thinking of Woody Guthrie )〕 Even though McDonald has issued several albums in his career, he looks to this album as the piece he is most proud of.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Country Joe McDonald )〕 ==Background ==
McDonald had signed on to Vanguard Records as a solo performer and went to Nashville with Sam Charters to record his first solo album in a small studio known as ''Bradley's Barn''. McDonald and his band were still together, but the relationship was faltering, and they would breakup soon after CJ Fish was released.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Thinking of Woody Guthrie )〕 McDonald was backed by well-regarded country musicians like Grady Martin in recording sessions for the album. Songs included were Guthrie favorites like "Tom Joad" and "This Land is Your Land".〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Woody Guthrie )〕 Although the studio musicians did not know the compositions McDonald wanted, they learned incredibly fast. Recording for the ten tracks took only a day to complete. With the spare recording time, more country standards were completed for McDonald's next album, ''Tonight I'm Singing Just For You''. The tracks were meant to retain the spirit of Guthrie's recordings so the songs were only adjusted to compliment McDonald's own style.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Country Joe McDonald )〕
