GaryD	The demise of Folk Music (101* d)	The demise of Folk Music	03 Mar 98
Had so much fun with our last discussion about street musicians, thought I'd see what you all come up with on the following: Why was their such a popularity of folk music in the 60's & early 70's, so much so that there were dozens of programs like hootenanny on major networks? On the flip side, what caused the demise of the same, so much so, that the only folk music you hear these days are some public radio stations & obscure street musicians, or revival concerts by some of the biggies? By following mudcat, I know there are a lot of you playing & singing out there for very appreciative audiences, but why not the outward public popularity anymore?
