Description:
" ... Reveals '60s folk-rock as a powerful instrument of musical and social change. You'll see how a diverse blend of styles, regions, and cultures swirled into the folk-rock revolution--infusing popular music with a controversial mix of literate lyricism, social consciousness, and rock 'n' roll rebellion. From Dylan to the Byrds and beyond, this is the story of the groundbreaking musicians who made history in the dizzying, evolutionary years of 1965-66. Based on firsthand interviews with such folk-rock visionaries as: Roger McGuinn, Judy Collins, Donovan, John Sebastian, Arlo Guthrie, Janis Ian, Richie Furay, and dozens more."--Cover.
