Something I've been meaning to ask
about:
I own 2 records from the "Anthology of
American Music" on New World Records that are just incredible.
"Country Music South and West" was produced by Bill Ivey and features
songs from the '20's-'40s by Rodgers, the Carters, McMichen, Harry Choates, Ted
Daffan, etc. "Going Down the Valley" has Shortbuckle Roark, the
Callahan Bros., Puckett, Macon & a bunch more.
My query: I remember that I heard several
other records in this anthology of diferent genres. I also believe I
learned that the entire anthology was available only to libraries and other
institutions. Does anyone know the whereabouts of any of these records
for purchase or dubbing? Any other info on the anthology? (I
kinda think it was a bicentennial thing, as it came out in the late
'70s.)
Much obliged,
Kelly
