Cultural Facts:

1. Family Ties: Living in Woody Guthrie’s shadow was unavoidable—Arlo’s career was constantly framed as inheritance vs. his own voice.

2. Scene Ecology: Post-’60s folk shifted into theaters and college circuits; Guthrie’s audience thrived in that “campus + counterculture hangover” network.

3. Media Narrative: Arlo’s public image leaned on storytelling and humor as credibility—folk as stand-up adjacent, not just protest music.
