Alex Campbell - Alex Campbell At The Tivoli Gardens

This is the CD release of ALEX CAMPBELL's second LP for Storyville Records, twelve tunes recorded live in Tivoli Gardens, Copenhagen, in 1967. The Scottish folk guitarist and singer was the first to actually earn a living playing folk music in Denmark and was one of the first to leave Britain for the Continent. The genre is contemporary, rather than traditional, folk music, with tunes by Paul Simon, Tom Paxton, Bob Dylan and Bert Jansch, among others, with one Campbell original. This music has a real edge; Campbell sings songs from real life - about drugs and rambling, loneliness and love.
