NotesThis collection was compiled out of just about every folk hit to reach Billboards Top 100 during a time in which folk music was regarded as a form of light entertainment and not the means of political and personal expression that it has become. This 28 track compilation features folk hits such as "Walk Right In" by the Rooftop Singers, "If I Had a Hammer" by Peter Paul and Mary, "Greenback Dollar" by the Kingston Trio, "Lizzie Borden" by the Chad Mitchell Trio and more.

  • These songs certainly refresh my memories!

    As we are older folks, we are really enjoying the songs of our past. The selection of artists, and their songs, is quite good. We have the CD in a car, so we can sing along (without disturbing anyone) and have a great time in our memory locker. Thanks for great CD

  • Terrific highlights of the pop-folk 1950-1975 era. I was there.

    Just right for those old enough to remember or who just want to hear the music of that era.
