This Mix accompanies “Lay Down Your Weary Tune,” Chapter 9 of All Hopped Up and Ready To Go: Music from the Streets of New York 1927-77. Specifically, it covers that period in the early 1960s when the “folk revivalists” of Greenwich Village, the singers who had made a career for themselves covering traditional material, mutated into “singer-songwriters,” performing their own compositions. Includes music by Bob Dylan, Phil Ochs and Tom Paxton.
