Thread Name: Lesser known folk groups
Subject: RE: Help: Lesser known folk groups
The Modern Folk Quartet out of Hollywood.
The Men became the Association after surgery.
On Homesteaders album, I think there was a cut with Judy Collins and Ronnie Gilbert singing together.
Hedge and Donna out of Hollywood.
Off subject but I love the Foremen.
The Villagers were short lived in New York. Erik Darling and Ethel Raim were in a group with that name. Pre-dated folk boom.
Songswappers appeared on a Folkways album. Pete Seeger and Mary Travis in that group did African rounds. Pre-dated folk boom.
Almanacs and the Priority Ramblers pre-dated the folk boom.
Did anyone mention New Lost City Ramblers?
Loved a short lived group in Massachussetts called County Down. (Three talented women).
Joyce James: Womenfolk.
Mebbe think of more.
