FOLK MUSIC USA - THE CHANGING VOICE OF PROTEST
by Ronald D. Lankford, Jr.
-
From the Kingston Trio's "Tom Dooley" to the infamous Bob Dylan electric performance at the Newport Folk Festival, the American Folk Revival of the late '50s and early '60s had a profound influence on American culture. This book details this period and explores how authentic folk is now experiencing another revival through our contemporary fascination with roots music. It's the story of the era of Sing Out!, Broadside, Washington Square jam sessions, Pete Seeger singalongs, and an exploration of the social activist side of 60's folk music. 208 pp.
