Various Artists - American Troubadours: Groundbreaking Singer-Songwriters of the 60s (BOOK)

This new book reveals the work of nine key singer-songwriters of the 1960s: David Ackles; David Blue; Tim Buckley; Tim Hardin; Fred Neil; Phil Ochs; Tom Rapp; Tim Rose; and Tom Rush. Here are individual tales of creativity and class songs including If I Were A Carpenter, Everybody's Talkin', Song To The Sire, Hey Joe, and No Regrets. The book shows how these nine talented artists each expanded the standard pop blueprint of the day and made a significant contribution to rock music's coming of age. A 32-page colour section features rare and revealing photographs, and a fully annotated and illustrated discography details the recorded output of the nine.
