Description

As featured in the recent Martin Scorcese documentary about Bob Dylan, NO WAY HOME, John Jacob Niles was a key progenitor of the 1950's resurgence of folk music in America. Historian, musicologist, performance artist - Niles was one of the first American folk artists to take traditional material and completely make it his own, years before Bob Dylan started channeling Woody Guthrie. THE BALLADS OF JOHN JACOB NILES is available for the first time on CD in this 2 disc collection.
