| | Jack Guthrie : Oklahoma Hills - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18) |
 | | Guthrie had an ear for good hooks, a memorable phrase, and a pleasing, twangy voice that recalled his one-time idol, Woody Guthrie, as well as his friend Ernest Tubb. |
 | | The music here is among the finest country that Capitol recorded in the mid-'40s, and that's saying something, considering that the competition included Tex Ritter, Merle Travis, and Hank Thompson. |
 | | Guthrie's music embraced country-folk and Western swing with equal aplomb, and virtually every word and note is memorable. |
