i'm not going to say what it looks like that guitar player is doing
-
nope i'm not lucifer, though many may think it
i'm a music man
that's all i ever really was
of course, guessing my name isn't all that difficult when it's right there in front of you
-
it's not bob if that's what you mean

pleased to meet you--won't you guess my name?
-

I was just reading about Lomax's trip around the country (mostly the south) to record old spiritual and original blues works. its nice to hear now that his dedicated work is being preserved at such a level. thanks kooperman!
now, anyone here know how to gain access to these recordings?
i have 16 discs of the collection, it isn't just american stuff--there are carribean islanders, irish and english singers
the american stuff is interesting--church songs, prisoners and chain gang stuff, songs imported and passed down through immigrants
another interesting couple that recorded common people was the warners, anne and frank--they were contemporaries of alan lomax, and recorded mountain people and other simple folk
from them you get gilgarra mountain (aka whiskey in a jar) tom dooley, and many other folk standards made famous in the 60's
they aren't as famous as the lomaxes, but they are almost as important (i have them too)
