Rather than add a lengthy show narration, I'll just point to The Folk Den - Roger McGuinn's Folk Den

a great example of keeping the Folk Tradition alive in the 21st century.

Cheers

Sorry I missed him. Saw him last at the Boulder Theater right after Back from Rio came out.

Roger McGuinn delivered a tour-de-force tonight here in Denver (Swallow Hill show).

Highlights included narrative folk history from Chicago roots to NY Village to LA folk rock launch pad for the Byrds.

Beautiful tenor voicing, 12 string and 7 string guitar showmanship and the bell-ringing Rickenback sound.

The live performances of Chestnut Mare and 8 Miles High stood out in the 2 hoiur show. Setlist to follow.
