1	Railroad Bill (1999) more music like this by Etta Baker The "premier woman Piedmont blues guitar instrumentalist" is a wordy but accurate description of 87-year-old Etta Baker of Morganton, NC. One of the last pickers who was around when the music was first being recorded, Baker's 83 years of practice is manifested in these wonderful recordings of traditional folk ballads. One highlight follows another ... see all copies from $13.71! new only from $13.71!
2	Etta Baker With Taj Mahal (2004) more music like this by Etta Baker There really isn't much Taj Mahal on this album, but that's OK, since Etta Baker is a national treasure all on her own. Baker has been playing guitar since she was three years old, and is now well into her ninth decade doing it, which is amazing in itself, but what makes the jaw drop here is her total command of the instrument. Arguably the last ... see all copies from $7.95! new only from $10.73!
3	One-Dime Blues (1991) more music like this by Etta Baker Guitarist/vocalist Etta Baker hadn't made any recordings or even been in a studio since 1956 before making the 20 numbers comprising this CD. But judging from the arresting vocals, prickly accompaniment and commanding presence she displayed on each song, it seemed as if she had been cutting tracks daily. Baker moved from sassy and combative blues ... see all copies from $15.37! new only from $15.37!

6	Instrumental Music of the Southern Appalachians (1997) more music like this by Various Artists A group of 20 field recordings of various dances ("Cripple Creek," "Pateroller Song"), folk songs ("Sally Goodin," "The Girl I Left Behind Me," unexpectedly haunting and affecting on harmonica), blues, children's songs ("Skip to My Lou"), and hymns ("Amazing Grace," in an astonishingly beautiful rendition for solo dulcimer), made by Liam Clancy, ... see all copies from $14.93! new only from $14.93!
7	North Carolina Banjo Collection (1998) more music like this by Various Artists An outstanding primer and introduction to a set of regional styles that give credence to the banjo as a virtuoso instrument. Much of the music on these two discs comes from field recordings made with the aid of local players who are semi-professional musicians at best, but that consideration does not affect the overall quality of the performances. ... see all copies from $22.08! new only from $22.08!
8	Old-Time Music on the Air (1994) more music like this by Various Artists This collection mixes veterans of old-timey music with younger advocates of the style, and the result is a delightful sampler for the music and for Rounder Records, which has supported things by issuing albums by most of the musicians included here. Among the high points are guitarist Etta Baker's classic "One Dime Blues," Will Keys' beautiful ... see all copies from $9.40! new only from $18.07!

This is one of numerous releases illustrating that the roots of American music have more of a commonality than is often supposed. Many of the ... see all copies from $15.42! new only from $15.42!
