Black Rose Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 Am I going mad by listening to more and more folk music these days? Both from the 60's and from the modern folk revival? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Rose Posted May 4, 2008 Author Share Posted May 4, 2008 I'm putting it down to over-exposure to guitar-based bands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TraceOddity Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 I love folk music. I started out playing and listening to mostly folk music. I'm a fan of thoughtful lyrics,and there's no better place to find them, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StarsKay Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 Folk music is ok. I only started listening to it when I did a report of Bob Dylan and Joan Baez and had to listen to a bunch of their albums. I don't think anyone can knock a good piece of folk music, especially since the lyrics can so powerful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's exactly how I started...having to write reports on Dylan and Leonard Cohen for high-school English class. They're the 2 artists that first started me writing music.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I was studying English @ uni we did a module on American Music and covered alot of Dylan...Before that I'd never even considered exploring this genre. I also love Joni Mitchell and then, of course, there are the Wainwrights! I like the the romanticised view on folk music and also rock-folk.... coffee houses.... free love.... berets...poetry Lol. I'd say I'm a fan :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marisa Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Love folk music! When the lyrics build a story I just can't help but listen. Bob Dylan, Conor Oberst, Cat Stevens, John Denver, oh yes I love Joni Mitchell too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
