Subject: RE: Basic Folk Library PermaThread
I would like to include these three magazines in the list of musical resources:
Sing Out! magazine is published by the same people who put out the song book Rise Up Singing. www.singout.org is also the home of the Sing Out! Resource Center in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. It houses a collection of folk music recordings, photos, books, periodicals and much more collected over the last 50 years. Sing Out!'s mission is to preserve and support the cultural diversity and heritage of all traditional and contemporary folk musics, and to encourage making folk music a part of our everyday lives.
Another great magazine is Dirty Linen. Dirty Linen is the bi-monthly magazine of folk and world music.Want to see? go to: www.dirtylinen.com/ They say: Accept no imitation! Click on the fiddle head for guaranteed quality! (their logo)
No Depression is a the bimonthly magazine surveying the past, present, and future of American music. It was launched in September 1995 as a quarterly publication and became bimonthly in September 1996. The name refers to the 1930s Carter Family song "No Depression In Heaven" see: http://www.nodepression.net/
