Album Review: Various Artists - Greenwich Village In The ‘60s: Beginnings And Branches Of The New York Folk Revival

This double album covers a broad range of artists who were both politically and emotionally in touch with their times. From the well known opening track by Dylan to the brilliance of the forgotten Phil Ochs, the music stretches from the hillbilly roots of folk to the Celtic rhythms of The Clancy Brothers. New York became the epicentre of the rural and city artists who somehow made their way onto the music scene in the '60s. Welcome to another wave of the folk revival.
