Recensione album
If Alan Lomax's tape recorder didn't hit pastoral pockets of young America, songs like "Sloop John B," "Midnight Special," "Black Betty" and "The House Of The Rising Sun" wouldn't have been radio hits. This is a rich compilation of original field recordings of songs that were later made into pop songs by other artists.
