About this electronic
AVID Roots presents the latest release in our Four Classic Albums series with a 2CD release Greenwich Village Folk, complete with original artwork, liner notes and personnel details. “Bob Dylan: Bob Dylan”; “Dave Van Ronk: Folksinger”; “Tom Paxton: I’m The Man That Built The Bridges”; “Erik Darling: True Religion And Other Blues, Ballads and Folksongs”. At last a folk follow up to our hugely successful Joan Baez: Four Classic Albums set (AMSC1213). AVID presents the work of four very different folk artists who hit the streets of Greenwich Village towards the end of the 1950s and early 1960s. Bob Dylan, you can tell by the original liner notes (featured on all AVID Classic Album releases), that the arrival of the twenty-year old Bob Dylan was an important event, there’s a lot of words written on the back of that album cover! Dave Van Ronk, better known locally as The Mayor Of Macdougal Street was a larger than life character who prowled the streets of Greenwich Village singing in his gravelly voice with a repertoire that would later become known as “Americana”. Tom Paxton, who still performs sporadically today at the age of 87, was born in Chicago and moved around with his folks quite a bit before settling in Oklahoma which he still considers to be his hometown. Like many other folkies of the era his interest in folk was stirred by Woody Guthrie and The Weavers. Erik Darling was another folkie inspired by The Weavers and Woody Guthrie, in fact in 1958 he actually joined The Weavers as the replacement for the legendary Pete Seeger, having been in the influential group The Tarriers before that. As with all AVID releases, we hope you enjoy this classic set and check out our extensive catalogue for more great music across country, folk, jazz, blues and many other musical genres.
