Re: UMT 2012: Genre #1 - Folk Rock

1. Bob Dylan
2. Tom Waits
3. Love
4. The Byrds
5. The Pogues

Re: UMT 2012: Genre #1 - Folk Rock

1) Nick Drake
2) Ben Harper
3) Bon Iver
4) The Pogues
5) Leonard Cohen

2 close calls :
Ray LaMontagne
Van Morrison

I'm not a big fan of Folk Rock, so I don't have issue not voting for the big ones.
But it looks indeed that in some categories, it will be harsh to pick only 5.

The Hooters?




They fit the genre according to RYM and there were not any 80's bands in the mix... shooting for as much diversity as possible... plus they had 3 pretty good albums from '85-'89.

Really sorry I couldn't fit Fleet Foxes in there.

I guess Waits doesn't occur in another genre?

Waits best 3 options are Blues Rock, Art Rock and Folk Rock. All 3 genres were loaded, so I felt best putting Tom into the folk rock catagory.

Re: UMT 2012: Genre #1 - Folk Rock

I know there are a lot of great artists to choose from but I'm surprised that nobody else has placed even a 5th place vote for CSN. If John Prine or Phil Ochs were on the nominations list I probably would have gone with one of them #5.
