Shenandoah is said to mean "Beautiful Daughter of the Stars." A fitting name indeed. Have seen much of it's beauty in the autumn from the old 51 Cardinal, by car on the roads.

My fav song and I love arlos version...but to me the one that harry belefonte does from his "live at carnegie hall" album just goes to your heart , and no one does it better! Just my opinion though ;-)

This song has many versions, very many. the original version is about the Shenandoah River in Iowa, the Missouri is the next river encountered after leaving the Shenandoah valley in Iowa. Guthrie adds many original choruses in his version, they are not original.

What really ticks me off is all you ass holes pontificating about the past. The past and for that matter all of history is replete with those that conquer and the conquered but what perplexes me the most is how you try to give it your own slant to shit you know nothing about. The only people that know anything were those that lived in that time. Let it go. The world will never see peace as long as you keep bringing up this stuff and throwing fuel on the fire. Its just a song enjoy it and move on

Beautiful images on video. Always loved the melody and always will. Was not aware that the lyrics were tragic as they are. Thanks for the post.
Beautiful pictures, along with a beautiful song. Well done video.
