Folk music has been evolving and adapting for centuries, but in the
1960s and 70s came an extraordinary period of change and
innovation. Rock musicians borrowed from traditional songs, while
folk musicians re-worked ancient ballads using electric guitars and
drum kits. From Dylan to Fairport Convention, Richard Thompson and
Steeleye Span, the fusion of old and contemporary created a
powerful new style: folk-rock. Since then, new and experimental
folk fusions have continued, involving anything from rap to
electronica. First published in 1975, at the height of the
folk-rock boom, the critically acclaimed Electric Muse chronicled
the story of the folk movement, from roots to revival. With new
chapters on the eras of Eliza Carthy, Billy Bragg, June Tabor,
Bellowhead, Sam Lee, Stick In The Wheel and others, and featuring
new interviews and photographs, this edition brings the fascinating
narrative up to date. As in 1975, The Electric Muse Revisited is
published simultaneously with a new album set of the same title, on
Good Deeds Music.
