Description

Visit the Greenwich Village folk music scene of the 1960s and bring your dulcimer! Ralph Lee Smith was there and saw it all. He was the only dulcimer player in the Villages old-timey string bands during the Folk Revivals glory days. A fascinating text and rare photographs bring you to Washington Square, the coffeehouses and the music gatherings at the Folklore Center and in Allan Blocks Sandal Shop, where young enthusiasts created a musical revolution. The book contains a selection of the songs and tunes that they played and swapped as they reclaimed a lost American heritage. If you cant play old tunes such as Finger Ring, Dance All Night with a Bottle in Your Hand, and Chickens are a-Crowin, get this book, light a candle and bring the Greenwich Village folk scene to your home or coffeehouse! Includes dulcimer tab in DAA and DAD, musical notation and guitar chords.
