In The Holy Barbarians, Lipton grouped these efforts as "part of the growing revival of the oral tradition and, in poetry, a part of the bardic tradition." In 1958, a year before The Holy Barbarians was published, Lipton and jazz photographer William Claxton co-produced an LP record: Jazz Canto: Vol. I, An Anthology of Poetry and Jazz, published by World Pacific Records.
