Loran Partigianoni wrote to let us know about ‘Folk Music ’50s & 60′s Radio, a folk music channel on Live 365. As Loran explains it the station is more about the artists of the folk revival than the music recorded then.
If you listen to Folk Music ’50s & ’60s Radio for very long, you’ll soon realize that this station is not a typical classic folk station, in fact the name of our station is really a misnomer, but Live365.com limits us to 22 characters. Since our focus is not really on the albums and songs of the ’50s & ’60s, but, instead our focus is on the folk artists and singer-songwriters who were a part of the Folk Revival of that period. In fact, we play their whole body of work even when they experiment with other instruments or venture entirely off of the reservation into other genres.
