专辑简介
Not as famous as he should be, Derroll was a contemporary of Woody Guthrie. He was a singer/songwriter who could make magic on the 5 string banjo. In the mid-1950s he and Ramblin' Jack Elliott headed to Europe. They busked around, made some records and become an important part of the British folk scene. Jack returned to the USA but Derroll stayed on permanently in Europe until his death in 2000 at age 75. He influenced a whole generation of musicians on both sides of the Atlantic. This tribute was lovingly put together by a few of those artists from both sides of the Atlantic to a man they considered a genius, a mentor, and a friend. A 62 page booklet comes with the cd and includes Derroll's life story, photos, reproductions of his artwork, lyrics, more.
