GUEST,Tunesmith | Folk Genius? (82* d) | Folk Genius? | 24 May 05 |
Just finished reading the Dave Van Ronk's book. Towards the end of the book, Dave muses over the talent that emerged during the 60s and concludes that the folkscene never produced a genius. JUST quality writers. He singles out Dylan and Joni Mitchell, in particular. Dave refers to Bach and Duke Ellington as examples of genius. What do we think about all that? |
