Notes
This two-disc budget collection is a mishmash of old 78s, and 1960s rediscovery recordings of blues and folk artists. What makes it unusual, although it probably isn't a selling point, is that the musicians are presented in sequence alphabetically. There are some great songs and performances here, but nothing so rare that it can't easily be found elsewhere.
