Division of Aging Program: The American Folk Music Revival of the 60’s and 70’s

May 7, 2018 @ 1:00 pm - 2:15 pm

The American Folk Music Revival of the 60’s and 70’s

With the Doc of Rock n Roll, Dr. Joel Keller

Four Consecutive Mondays beginning April 23rd from 1:00 PM to 2:15 PM

The folk music revival of the 60’s and 70’s embodied the changes taking place in American society at the time: socially, politically and musically.  This music was shaped by historical events such as the civil rights era and the Vietnam War.  It in turn, shaped each of our lives on a personal level.

We will look at the early roots of folk and then feature short bios of selected artists:  Bob Dylan, Woodie Guthrie, Peter, Paul and Mary, Judy Collins, Joan Baez, Simon and Garfunkel among others.  Featuring rarely seen audio and video recordings
