    100-track, 4-disc box set covering an era when folk music shed its hootenanny skin by addressing political and social issues while becoming more open to change, embracing rock, country and high-class folk pop. Key artists: Pete Seeger, Bob Gibson, Bob Dylan, Judy Collins, Fred Neil, Tom Paxton, Phil Ochs, Barry McGuire, John Phillips, Cass Elliot, Cher, The Byrds, The Lovin’ Spoonful, Simon & Garfunkel, Tim Hardin, Gordon Lightfoot, Doc Watson, Townes Van Zandt and Johnny Cash. Key songs include ‘Where Have All The Flowers Gone?’, ‘Morning Dew’, ‘Mr Tambourine Man’, ‘There But For Fortune’, ‘What Have They Done To The Rain?’, ‘Me And My Uncle’, ‘Everybody’s Talkin’’, ‘High Flying Bird’ and ’Get Together’. This anthology was compiled and annotated by Mick Houghton, author of the acclaimed Sandy Denny biography (I’ve Always Kept A Unicorn) and Becoming Elektra – The True Story Of Jac Holzman’s Visionary Record Label.
