While it may not be the most fashionable sound around, Folk music stems from a rich tradition of eccentric English artists buried within a rich and sometimes devastating social history.
The roots of everything from grime through to hip-hop to hermetic electronic-sonic wizards are buried within Steve Roud's fascinating history. While it may not touch on these genres, those willing to dig deep will be able to connect the dots from street level rap back to street level folk storytellers.
A highly recommended read for those looking to invest themselves in a time when things were done different.
