content: Richard Dyer-Bennet (1913-1991) played a major role in the folk music revival of the 1950's and 1960's. He founded his own record label in 1955 in order to maintain artistic control over the sound quality, repertory, and style of his performances. His meticulously cultivated vocal and guitar styles, high tenor range, and studied delivery of poetic text attracted adoring audiences across North America and Europe. (For an extended biography of Dyer-Bennet, written by his daughter, Bonnie, see the liner notes for SFW40078.) This recording, the tenth album released on the Dyer-Bennet label, in 1962, presents Dyer-Bennet's interpretive minstrelsy in an eclectic program, including songs from the United States, England, Ireland, Spain, and France, plus several of his own composition. Liner notes provide background information and lyrics for each song. Program notes by R. Dyer-Bennet on container. Texts of songs (4 p.) inserted in container. Performer(s): Richard Dyer-Bennet, guitar and voice.
