I suppose you couldn't call this "authentic" folk music, but I liked the Brothers Four and all the other Kingston Trio Clones of the 1960's. Oh, I suppose some of these groups may have started before the Kingston Trio, but it was the success of the Kingston Trio that allowed all these other acts to become popular.
