Additional notes

Album Notes: As much an audio syllabus for an American cultural anthropology course as a collection of songs, the Dust-to-Digital label's mammoth 5-CD box set ART OF FIELD RECORDING, compiled by artist and collector Art Rosenbaum, may prove daunting to even the most insatiable roots-music fans. Thankfully, the label also issued a 17-track primer that highlights key performances from the box set and chronicles more than 50 years in the unfettered realms of America's musical heritage--hollers, yodels, gut-bucket blues, Sacred Harp, steel guitar, and all points in between.

Album Reviews: The Wire (p.56) - "[A] rich, incredible blend of sounds and visions....In terms of sonics, spirit and construction, this music exists almost outside the framework of time altogether."
