78 blues folksongs and phonographs in the American South

When record men first traveled from Chicago or invited musicians to studios in New York, these entrepreneurs had no conception how their technology would change the dynamics of what constituted a musical performance. 78 Blues: Folksongs and Phonographs in the American South covers a revolution in artist performance and audience perception through close examination of hundreds of key "hillbilly" and "race" records released between the 1920s and World War II. In the postwar period, regional strains recorded on pioneering 78 r.p.m. discs exploded into urban blues and R & B, honk.

He shows how the first generation of southern Americans to market their music on records communicated not just songs and tunes, but also facets from a broad spectrum of southern folklore and literature."--Page 4 of cover."
