Greenwich Village

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 Village?s old-timey string bands during the Folk Revival?s 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 Block?s 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 can?t 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.
