AllenLowe Posted February 7, 2006 Author Report Posted February 7, 2006 (edited) the book is still available, though the full text will eventually also be available in the booklets accompanying what will be 4 separate volumes of 9 CDs (which will supposedly be issued over the next year or so) - I'm unable, right now, to list the tracks but will try to put something together - a lot of the sound on the early (pre-1920) recordings is rough, but sources were difficult to find and resources limited - however, I do think this is the best of its kind in its examination of the early origins of jazz and pre-jazz forms - of course, I am biased - Edited February 7, 2006 by AllenLowe Quote

Adam Posted February 7, 2006 Report Posted February 7, 2006 Will the sound quality be of the nature of the Revenant American Primitives releases? or the Harry Smith Anthology? Quote
AllenLowe Posted February 7, 2006 Author Report Posted February 7, 2006 I would describe it as in-between - some of these recordings are 110 years old - original sources were difficult to find and often quite weak - however, though de-noising was done, we were careful to leave the music - and I was able to come up with a track list: DISCOGRAPHY (36 CD Companion Set to THAT DEVILIN’ TUNE) Volume 1 1.
