'Story songs' and 'ballads' have been around in popular music in America since the 1920s, and they've been a part of the folk tradition since the 1600s. They are myths, true stories and works of fiction. Some pop artists have taken them to the top of the carts. Let's get together and talk about some stories!(Please note that the playlist, [found here](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0vTJykwP0llRFkp5Dy6oSl?si=Qy7R7O24Sgq…), is the length of a full 80-minute CD. Feel free to listen in its entirety, or to whichever segments are of interest to you.)
