Jail House Bound: John Lomax's First Southern Prison Recordings, 1933 (WEST VIRGINIA SOUND ARCHIVES)

Mark Allan Jackson
4.9/5 (33923 ratings)
Description:In 1933, John Lomax and his young son Alan traveled by car to a number of prisons scattered throughout Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Tennessee. In the nation’s most restricted spaces, they recorded African-American convicts, who Lomax thought would be some of the last singers of traditional folk material due to the isolation of the institutions that held them.  As a result of this fieldwork, we now have access to a multitude of powerful songs, both well and little known, which provide some understanding of this folk group during the era of Jim Crow in America’s South.  We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
