Item description from seller

Knoxville. 2017. March 2017. University of Tennessee Press. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Wrappers. 9781621903154. 290 pages. paperback. keywords: Music America History. DESCRIPTION - Joe Wilson (1938–2015) served for twenty-eight years as executive director of the National Folk Festival and National Council for Traditional Arts. A native of rural East Tennessee, Wilson was a self-educated scholar, and throughout his impressive and varied career - a career that progressed through Nashville, Birmingham, and New York City, before settling him in Washington, D.C. - he wrote extensively and colorfully about many facets of vernacular music in North America, including works on major folk instruments, as well as on characteristic musical styles, especially old- time, bluegrass, modern country, blues, cowboy, a cappella gospel, and others. Roots Music in America compiles Wilson's best writings on musical topics, including some previously unpublished works. With wry humor, Wilson covers the origins of roots music in eighteenth-century America and its subsequent dispersion through races, classes, ethnic groups, and newly settled regions. Wilson knew, worked with, and wrote about many iconic artists of the twentieth century, including Willie Nelson, Doc Watson, Clarence Ashley, the Stanley Brothers, Kenny Baker, Cephas & Wiggins, John Jackson, and members of the Hill Billies - the band whose name came to signify an entire genre of the earliest recorded roots music. This carefully curated volume is comprised of works previously scattered in liner notes, small-circulation magazines, tour booklets, and unpublished manuscripts, all collected here and organized by theme. inventory #42130.
