Thread Name: The Weavers and the McCarthy Era
Subject: RE: The Weavers and the McCarthy Era
To "Q" ...I would like to think that the Weavers DID have a big impact on society from say 1949 through the 50's. My problem is that I was so very CLOSE to it, that I really can't judge that impact accuratly. I know they certainly impacted me, as I've already said. And more than that, they impacted my parents and most of my friends. But then, "most" of my friends were musicians, if not folk singers. So, I dunno? I'd sure like to hear some more opinions on this point. CHEERS, Bob
