The Folkswingers | id

The Folkswingers were an American studio band with constantly changing personnel. On 12 String Guitar!, an instrumental folk album released in 1963, they are Glen Campbell on 12-string guitar and The Dillards, an American bluegrass band from Salem, Missouri. The producer Jim Dickson called the group The Folkswingers and they recorded folk and bluegrass songs to cash-in on the current trends. Basically they kept the name for the 1966 album and tried to tackle another musical trend. It's interesting to note that World Pacific actually put out a Ravi Shankar sitar album in 1965.
