The Music of Kentucky: Early American Rural Classics 1927-37 Vol. 1 (Yazoo 2013) no longer in print.

Volume 1 of an expansive 26 track collection of early hillbilly artists singing traditional ballads, gospel songs, and playing fiddle tunes from Kentucky, accompanied by guitars, banjos, and full string bands, drawn from 78 RPM records and field recordings made in the 1920s & 1930s. Transfers and mastering are excellent, as are each and every performance. Includes a 10 page illustrated booklet with extensive biographical information by Gus Meade and Charles K. Wolfe. 

CD in V+ condition with a minor scratch. Plays like new.
