10.28.14 | Damn, 60/60 album art. |
emester
10.28.14 | Absolutely love 17, 20 45, 57, and especially 58 and 60 |
manosg
10.28.14 | Agreed. Especially Skyclad need more love on here. |
dh198
10.28.14 | Very good list. |
Deathconscious
10.28.14 | idk why but it genuinely annoys me when artists put themselves on their album covers. |
Onirium
10.28.14 | Great list, I'll have to check some of these out |
Onirium
10.28.14 | @AdolfChrist personally I think there's a way of not being annoying when you put yourself on the cover. 29 is a great example, because the cover still has personality and originality |
PappyMason
10.28.14 | Great list.
59 looks really interesting, need to check. |
ExcentrifugalForz
10.28.14 | 37 is a great band
always had a tom waits feel |
zakalwe
10.28.14 | One of the best lists on here my friend |
AmericanFlagAsh
10.28.14 | I love folk
Gonna have to check some of these out. Thanks. |
manosg
10.28.14 | Thanks for the kind words guys. I've been on a folk binge lately, such a great genre. |
Friday13th
10.28.14 | ^ Likewise. Sweet list. I dig a lot of this, so I'll have to check the rest. |
deslad
10.28.14 | Such an amazing list man, this definitely has to be featured. I've only heard a handful of these but I enjoy
folk so I intend to listen as many as possible. |
manosg
10.28.14 | Thanks, I appreciate it! I hope it does get featured. And if you have any recs guys, feel free to shoot. |
NorthernSkylark
10.28.14 | check out sibylle baier, she belongs on this list too (great list btw!)
also i'm chcking john prine, sweet revenge will prevail without fail - cool stuff |
manosg
10.28.14 | Glad you dig John Prine, yeah his lyrics are pretty cool. I'll definitely check Sibylle Baier especially after seeing Vashti Bunyan as a similar artist. |
SharkTooth
10.28.14 | So glad you put 22 here, Muddy Waters deserves so much more attention on the site tbh |
TalonsOfFire
10.28.14 | Great list, I've been trying to get into folk lately so this will definitely help. |
manosg
10.28.14 | @Shark
Definitely dude. Overall, the blues need more love on here.
@Talons
Nice man, I'm glad. Hope you find some stuff you enjoy. |
JamieTwort
10.28.14 | Really good list.
Was thinking about making a folk list soon myself as folk has made up about 60% of my music listening recently and is my favourite genre. Might make a smaller list of absolute favourites as you've done a great job of making a more expansive list.
The lack of Roy Harper makes me sad though. |
manosg
10.28.14 | Yeah without having heard his albums properly, I'm sure that he belongs on this list. I wasn't comfortable though having him without having listened at least one of his albums a few times. The thing is that his older stuff is not on Spotify or YT so I need to download them and I keep forgetting ;) |
JamieTwort
10.28.14 | Get Flat Baroque and Berserk asap!
Followed by the rest of his first 5. |
Judio!
10.28.14 | Damn you did an excellent job with this list Manosg! I'm actually just beginning to get into 36, I used to dislike it but I'm been listening to it like crazy this past week. |
DrMaximus
10.28.14 | 28 is gorgeous |
JCGold14
10.28.14 | Just like you said, 17 was a complete shock the first time i heard it, but I love it for what it is compared to the rest of their discography |
Atari
10.28.14 | excellent list manosg...several of my favorites are on here, but I also need to give some of these a proper listen!
EDIT: checking 56 now and it sounds sweet so far |
manosg
10.28.14 | Thanks man. Yeah 56 is awesome, glad you like it. |
Xar
10.28.14 | "Avant-folk involving Nico and her harmonium. Pretty gloomy stuff that might appeal to some gothic/post punk fans."
sold. |
manosg
10.28.14 | Hope you enjoy man, it's a weird album. |
Atari
10.28.14 | this definitely deserves a feature |
Muisc4Life26

Totengott
10.28.14 | Hell yes, this needs to be featured. |
NeroCorleone80
10.28.14 | Great list. Should be featured. Props for 22, my favorite blues record, although I wouldnt really call it "folk" blues, theres a lot of electric guitar on it too. |
MrSirLordGentleman
10.28.14 | Feature this list
asap |
MrSirLordGentleman
10.28.14 | Gotta admit that I've always prefered America's debut over 31 |
ScuroFantasma
10.29.14 | 59 kicks ass |
Asdfp277

You're welcome dude. I'll give his s/t a spin soon enough!

Titan
10.29.14 | i absolutely love 31, great list bro |
RadioSuicide
10.30.14 | a ton of essentials great list |
danielcardoso
10.30.14 | Great list man, I've already started checking out your recs and I've been really enjoying listening to Jim Croce and Van Morrison, to name a few. |
manosg
10.30.14 | @Titan
Thanks man. Yeah 31 is awesome.
@Radio
Thanks dude.
@daniel
Nice man. Really glad you're enjoying Van, I love his music. |
Amphoteric
10.30.14 | In Gowan Ring - Hazel Steps Through A Weathered Home
This album is definitely worth a listen.
|
manosg
10.31.14 | ^will do |
MOJ
10.31.14 | Neat list BROTHA, damn BROTHA folk is beautiful! I saw most of the album arts here are classy and beautiful too, pure works of art, chroooottttttt haard!!!!! and will check the uncheckeds AGREED |
manosg
10.31.14 | Nice to see you drop by bro. 19 rules agreed. |
Nagrarok
10.31.14 | Great list indeed, everything I've heard off it rules, couple I still need to give a listen too. |
Funeralopolis
10.31.14 | the middle east- the recordings of the middle east |
fallenbird
10.31.14 | Simon and Garfunky, favorite band of all time. |
Jethro42
11.01.14 | Very impressive list. Nice to see 25, and a lot more.
Try Shawn Phillips - Second Contribution |
manosg
11.01.14 | Thanks Jethro. I've come across Shawn Phillips a couple of times but for some reason haven't checked his music yet. I'll definitely give Second Contribution a spin. |
MOJ
11.01.14 | bro also check the album "Whom The Moon A nightsong sings"
you'll love it as I love some new albums that I hadn't discovered before from this list hehhha |
manosg
11.01.14 | You got me sold on the title right there. Will czech. |
Amphoteric
11.01.14 | Also check out the album "Der Wanderer über dem Nebelmeer" if you haven't heard it already, it's another folky compilation from several notable bands (Agalloch, Musk Ox, and October Falls being a few), much like "Whom the Moon a Nightsong Sings". |
titanslayer
11.01.14 | I'm kinda weird when it comes to folk. There's some really highly rated folk albums that I hate, and some I love. Some of it just works for me and a lot of it really doesn't click. |
JamieTwort
11.01.14 | Folk's such a broad term now, it goes without saying that you'd like some of it and dislike other stuff within the genre. |
NorthernSkylark
11.02.14 | contemporary folk: (mainly indie/folk not listed ^)
iron & wine - our endless numbered days
fleet foxes - helplessness blues
the rumour said fire - the life and death of a male body (danish jangle folk ep)
the microphones - the glow pt. 2 (lo-fi)
jake bugg - jake bugg (solid debut)
laura marling - once i was an eagle (great double album)
neutral milk hotel - in an aeroplane over the sea
sun kil moon - benji
etc.
|
JamieTwort
11.02.14 | Surprised no one's mentioned Elliott Smith. |
NorthernSkylark
11.02.14 | yes, him too |
manosg
11.02.14 | Indeed. I'm not his biggest fan but I think he has quite a fan base on here. Thanks for the recs as well, I'll give them a spin. |
