Product Description:
There are many key tracks on this compilation of late-Fifties/early-Sixties folk recordings - but none are more significant than track eight, disc two. The Kingston Trio's version of 'Tom Dooley' opened the floodgates by topping the US chart in 1958, inspiring a five-year folk boom that would give many soon-to-be familiar names their start in music. Folk music had been an integral part of American culture for decades. But the boom - revival, call it what you will - that flowered in the coffee houses of New York's Greenwich Village as the Fifties closed would inspire a new generation to pick up their acoustic guitars. To take yourself back to the halcyon days of Bob, Joanie and Tom Dooley, just press play!
