Journeys of a Street Musician: Adventures in Busking [Episode 249]
This episode’s guest is Cary Baker. He is the author of the new book Down On The Corner: Adventures In Busking & Street Music. This is the story of music performed on the streets, in subways, in parks, in schoolyards, on the back of flatbed trucks, and beyond, from the 1920s to the present day. Anyone who has lived in or traveled through a city will have encountered street musicians of one kind or another. For the first time, veteran journalist and music-industry publicist Cary Baker tells the complete history of these musicians and the music they play.
