Got Folk?


Frank has just splashed out on the Smithsonian Folkways Recordings Anthology of American Folk Music edited by Harry Smith. 84 tracks across six discs, and a huge influence on the folk-boom of the 50s and 60s. It's a lovely big box set with various marvellously wonky documents reproduced from Harry's originals, plus some more up-to-date cultural overview stuff from the likes of Greil Marcus. Should hopefully keep us entertained for a while.
