The folk revival as a search for authentic democracy . . . traces the many cultural influences on the folk revival of the late fifties and the sixties. OK, but this is a subject of passion and Cantwell brings much passion along with his credentials to this analysis of the cultural forces that culminated (and then spilled over) in that moment at Newport when Dylan and Baez sang with Peter, Paul, and Mary; Pete Seeger; and the SNCC Freedom Singers. |
