A discussion with Kristina Gaddy about her forthcoming book with Rhiannon Giddens; a collection of transcribed music from Black artists from 1687 to the Civil War
The real roots of blues, jazz, and rock. I'll add this to my treasure trove of roots music, along with the great retro cuts played each week on Black Mold's "Music of Mass Distraction" show on WWOZ New Orleans. He always does a set of early recordings along with the eclectic mix. You can stream it on Friday nights or from the archive for free: https://www.wwoz.org/listen/player/
P.S. - Donate to WWOZ if you can; as a public radio station, they just had their federal funding yanked.
Interesting! The Tennessee Valley Old Time Fiddler’s Convention is always in early October. These pieces would be an interesting addition to the convention program!
I like the idea of doing something new with the old music. Historical research is interesting to me as it is related to the librarianship field in which I worked. The best to this new work!
