Synopsis
This volume provides information on some 14,500 recordings of 3500 old-time folk and country songs recorded between 1921 and 1942. Each performance receives a full citation, including the date and place of recording, original and variant artist, and title credits. Whenever possible, songs are traced back to their original lyricists and composers or to major published and unpublished folksong collections. Entries are grouped into broad subject categories: ballads, popular songs, religious songs, and instrumentals. Based on 35 years of research in public and private collections of recordings, broadsides, pamphlets and sheet music, it seeks to allow a fresh understanding of pre-World War II country music and its intricate connections to the blues, old world folk music, and the broad spectrum of American popular song.

a magnificent achievement
22. Juni 2003
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
This is one of those books that was a "life's work" for its principal author (Gus Meade), but we never would have seen the fruits of his labor without the help of two colleagues who completed this volume after his death--his son Douglas and leading folk scholar Dick Spottswood. It is the most valuable listing of traditional music I have ever seen, everything from British ballads to topical songs, cowboy songs, minstrel music, sentimental songs, blues and hornpipes! There is a wide range of 19th century music here, and some from the early 1900s. Pre-1942 recordings of the songs are listed (including LP/CD reissues), but the book is also valuable for its citations of early published versions (including songbooks), composer/author credits and commentary on the often-similar songs. For anyone interested in the field of traditional American music, this volume is a must.
Country Music Sources

This is a well-researched discography of early folk and country recorded music by the late Gus Meade. It was completed and published after his passing with the able assistance of Dick Spottswood, a noted music archivist from the Washington, D.C. area.
The selections are sorted by the subject matter of the music which makes it a little difficult to zero in on a specific recording by recording label or artist. Even so, navigation is not that difficult and the references provided are invaluable for music historians and collectors alike.
This is a necessary addition to the library of anyone interested in collecting music and recordings from the first half of the 20th century. I have been able to find additional detail about the many 78 rpm discs in my collection that is not available from any other source.

The most useful book in my library
19. Januar 2006
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
Since I got this for Christmas, I have probably used it several dozen times. I use it mainly to cross reference songs on my Bluegrass, Old-Time, and Americana collections but really it could serve as the bedrock of any thesis on early American music. This is a fine book, put together by Meade and many others.
