Great achievement in sound on these recordings, some of which are 80 years old. Initiates will be amazed at how closely these country and jugband blues numbers border on rock & roll, and close observers will spot originals later covered by the Grateful Dead, Allman Brothers, Canned Heat, and other disciples of the genre. Essential listening. ~R. Riis
