We're eager to hear of Peterson has scored a bulls eye or missed the mark. Do you identify folk-rock as a kind of music you love? Who are your favorites? I'm not sure women are fabulously represented in his list... what do you think? Let's talk... But first visit the article - http://www.aarp.org/entertainment/music/info-05-2012/9-folk-rock-albums.html |

I am a fan of Simon and Garfunkle, and the Byrds, but, Bob Dylan never made me swoon.The I could never understand why he was so popular. Yes, you should feel guilty for leaving out the female singers in folk -rock. Where is Joan Baez, and Janis Joplin? or did you just consider them folk only? This is a great list of female singers, and their sometimes sad stories? http://music.yahoo.com/blogs/list-of-the-day/classic-female-rock-and-folk-singers.html |

In Response to Re: Scott Peterson's List of 9 Great Folk-Rock Albums and Songs - What do you think?: I agree with The Byrds, Simon & Garfunkel, Fairport Convention. Never cared for REM or Dylan unless his songs were done by other artists. But where is The Lovin' Spoonful? Buffalo Springfield? Donovan? Posted by edillon |
