Doesn't look like it.

ETA - The sound gets fixed after about one minute. And btw, Pete Seeger shows up for a few ramshackle duets & philosophizing. I think you had to be there. Crowd loved it.

NPR, in a brief synopsis, included this error, not to mention misspelling Elliott's name:

A matter-of-fact singer with credibility to spare - the man used to ride the rails with Woody Guthrie, for heaven's sake - Elliott continues to release albums, the latest of which is 2009's A Stranger Here.


The above is an example of sloppy research and how myths are made. Elliott DID NOT "ride the rails with Woody Guthrie" as has been stated earlier in this thread. He made two major car trips with Guthrie: One out to California, and the other to Florida. I've heard Elliott at a gig telling about the only time he hopped a freight. He was alone, wound up in Texarkana, and was less than thrilled with the experience.

Mr. Elliott's hard core fans know he'd much rather be behind the wheel of a semi.
