'New Electric Muse, the story of folk into Rock', a 3 CD set compiled in 1996 by Caslte Communications plc has everything you could ever wish to know about how Folk turned into Rock. It's a rerelease of a 4LP set by the same name released in 1975.
Artists include Swarb, Robin & Barry Dransfield, Bert Jansch, Andrew Cronshaw, the Carthy/Waterson ensemble, Battlefield Band, Capercaille and that's just on one CD!
Copious sleeve notes too many to transcribe, in a 40+ booklet.
