If you were going to record a classic folk record, ala' Vanguard and Prestige folk recordings of the late 50's and 60's, how would you do it?
I'm talking about the sound of records by Jack Elliot, Odetta, Bob Dylan's first record, Buffy St. Marie, etc
I know these were treated silimarly to jazz recordings, but they have a sound-
How much of it was the record being mastered to vinyl?
How would you do it?
