Comment:

From the liner notes to White Country Blues, 1926-1938 A Lighter Shade of Blue:
During the 1920s, it was customary for the major record companies to segregate the kinds of Southern music they recorded, most had a separate numerical series for white "hillbilly" or old-time music, another for "race" or blues music. Yet both the fans and the musicians knew this segregation was artificial at best, and that throughout the South, there was much more give-and-take in the music than some Northerners thought..[Most] never really enjoyed the fruits of their work. Many drifted into obscurity, and out of music entirely, many fell on hard times, and en ded up living in tar-paper shacks or on run down farms. Many wound up like "Talking Blues Man" Chris Bouchillon, living in retirement without even a copy of his old records, wondering occasionally if anyone remembered his music. Yet their seeds had been cast, and their music had done its work, and it had helped make millions aware of the plurality of American vernacular music - and along the way had changed the face of music itself.

When Blood Brother Tex asked about putting together a mix of "blues and hillbilly music from the 20s and 30s", Brother Doowad jumped at the chance. Brother Funky sat this one out, but he'll be back with Gutbucket 13.
