Description
RARE COMPLETE COLLECTION: THE BALLAD HUNTER, PARTS I, II, III, IV, V, VI, VII, VIII, IX & X, JOHN A. LOMAX (1867-1948) LECTURES ON AMERICAN FOLK MUSIC.
ISSUED BY THE LIBRARY OF CONGRESS UNDER A SPECIAL GRANT FROM THE CARNEGIE CORPORATION OF NEW YORK.
JOHN A. LOMAX'S OUTSTANDING SERIES. THE FATHER OF ALAN LOMAX PRODUCED THIS RADIO SERIES WHILE HEAD OF THE FOLK MUSIC DEPARTMENT OF THE LIBRARY OF CONGRESS. THESE WERE ISSUED AS VINYL RECORDS FOR RADIO STATIONS IN THE 50'S, 4 OF THESE ARE ON RED WAX. A TRUE PIECE OF HISTORY HERE. JOHN A. LOMAX PROVIDES DIALOG TO INTRODUCE EACH RECORDING EXPLAINING ITS MEANING AND THE CONTEXT FROM WHICH THE RECORDING WAS MADE. A VERY PLEASURABLE LISTEN WITH MANY INTERESTING FIELD RECORDINGS, RECORDED AND EDITED BY JOHN HIMSELF. A WONDERFUL AND VERY OLD GROUP OF RECORDS THAT ARE DIFFICULT TO FIND. NOT MANY OF THESE WERE PRODUCED IN THE FIRST PLACE.
This historically significant complete series of the vinyl albums, would make a great "Folk Americana" edition for any collector!
Selling as found, covers were damp once but stored dry for years.
Records could have scratches or need cleaning.
This is all I know about these great LP records, and I am no expert.
Please bid based on your own knowledge, and from the pictures.
