Country Blues Songbook

Country Blues Songbook by Stefan Grossman. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780825601378.

The shellac of the 20s, 30s and 40s caught the fleeting moment, the spirit of the times; the raunchy ragtime, barrelhouse boogie and the country blues. Some of those records will never be replaced. Some, never will be heard again. Many of those songs are here in printed form for the first time, as an only monument to a pristine era never to happen again. This is a valued collection of the great country blues - as sung and played by the greatest of the country bluesmen - as collected and annotated by Stefan Grossman, Hal Grossman, and Stephen Calt.
