GUEST,canoer Help: Good modern folkies (78* d) RE: Help: Good modern folkies 31 Jan 00


WyoWoman, thanks for supporting social awareness! It's tough when few respond to, for instance, Ochs-like songs for today. (And few writing them!!!) My humble opinion, the songs won't come until there's a big enough swell in consciousness to inspire and support them. Don't the songs of today just reflect the general individualistic "cocooning"/"be your own millionaire" atmosphere that's prevalent? I don't think the protest-song wave of the sixties took off until there were first sufficiently large movements for the musicians to work from. So, we'll just have to be part of the support for the next wave. Hopefully coming soon! Thanks for your post.
