Only really got into folk about a week ago when I watched the BBC documentary called Folk America (highly recommend you watch it)
After that I downloaded some compilation albums of some of the artists that sounded good to me.
Henry Thomas and Blind Lemon Jefferson are great, also downloaded the Anthology Of American Folk, which is a 4+ hour long compilation of old 20's and 30's folk songs.
Also downloaded the albums Today! and The Immortal by Mississippi Joh Hurt, which is my favourite out of the bunch.
