Subject: RE: Folk rock - Got a favorite?
Hey Big Mick: If I may interrupt this non-conversation.. Me and my big mouth... now you'll be bidding against me of Cat Mother and the All Night News Boys. I don't believe that they've ever been re-issued on CD, but both of their albums are available, used. If you don't bid against me on Street Songs, I'll make you a cassette of Albion DooWah, which I have. I also have the Kaleidescope album that has an eight minute version of the Cuckoo on electric banjo. Maybe I'll put it all together and cut a CD on my computer.

Yeah, I came to New York in 1960, and was there when Dylan came, and you could listen to Mississippi John Hurt all night at the Gaslight Cafe, nursing a cup of coffee, and saw everything disintegrate into 45 minute sets with a cover charge I could never afford. Money does it, every time.

And thanks, Spaw! The Holy Modal Rounders thread is great fun... brings back a lot of good memories. I didn't check but I think that their first two albums are out on CD..

Euphoria..

Hey, and what about The Youngbloods? You're definitely talking folk-rock there... they also did Euphoria..
