review by: Arcaton date: 2004-08-28 rating:This...is a release for collectors by the King of Collectors
This is not just another reissue of old 78's .... this is a collection of rarities put together by a man who lives and breathes shellac. The discs on this CD are all prime copies, no elecktrickery; track 21 (Original Stack O'Lee Blues) is the only copy of this disc known to exist, one disc from a label that issued only 55 records....bought in a lot for ten dollars, that someone has since offered thirty thousand dollars for....but collectors never sell, they buy discs to listen to, not trade.
And Joe Bussard is the king of collectors, been at it since his teens, knows his stuff and loves his music...proper music that is. We are lucky that he chooses to share his collection with us and others who've heard his broadcasts....
This is a collectors issue for collectors; you can tell by the booklet with the CD...74 pages with details about the discs, how they were found (each and every one!) pictures of the labels and (mint!!)sleeves....if they could record the smell and feel of a shellac disc in a cardboard sleeve they would have done.
Most of us will never amass stuff like this since the glory days of collecting 78's from the original owners are now well gone; buy this CD and enjoy some real American music from the days when folks appreciated real musicianship.
Then, in the words of Joe Bussard "Enjoy yourself, relax and live!"
