Most people buy this set for the CDs, and they have some great early works. Some of the songs share similar melodies; many work off the same theme (the death of a mother; an orphaned child). The accompanying book offers thumbnail sketches of the artists -- many of whom we really know nothing about -- and make a valiant attempt to print all the lyrics for the songs (including a few that would be seen as highly offensive today). Also included are the actual recording sheets (some with handwritten notes), and images of the original Victor records when they exist. It's a nice visual complement to the auditory main course.

Some call Bristol the
Birthplace of Country Music;
This book tells us why. ( )
