  • Summary

  • Before Dylan plugs in at Newport Folk, the blues and R&B movements, largely neglected in America, finds a generation of dedicated fans in Europe. A wave of bands is formed out of the wreckage of World War II England, and they bring this art form, amped up by the further influence of Motown, Stax, and Sun Records, and repackaged with white faces, back to its country of origin, where it becomes a culture-shifting sensation. A country in mourning takes the opportunity to cut loose.
