Even before the Beatnik Riots of 1961, New York Citys Greenwich Village was the epicenter of revolutionary movements in American music and culture. But, in the early 1960s and throughout the decade, a new wave of writers and performers inspired by the folk music revival of the 1950s created socially aware and deeply personal songs that spoke to a generation like never before. These writersBob Dylan, Buffy Sainte-Marie, Janis Ian, and Phil Ochs, to name a fewchanged the folk repertoire from traditional songs to songs sprung from personal, contemporary experiences and the nations headlines, raising the level of political self-expression to high art. Message and music merged and mirrored society.In Music + Revolution: Greenwich Village in the 1960s, Richard Barone unrolls a freewheeling historical narrative, peppered with personal stories and insights from those who were there. Illustrated with contemporaneous portraits of the musicians by renowned photographer David Gahr, it celebrates the lasting legacy of a pivotal decade with stories behind the songs that resonate just as strongly today
