Ruckus Juice & Chitlins, Vol. 1: The Great Jug Bands Classic Recordings form the ’20s and ’30s / Yazoo CD-2032

Description

Yazoo 2032.

Everybody loves jug band music! It is universal in its appeal, at times raggy, at times stompin’, and at other times hauntingly plaintive and evocative. The fascinating thing about jug band music is that it encompasses theater spectrum of early rural music styles and some from uptown too! This collection of classic recordings from the 1920s and 30s features many all-time best performances of early American traditional music.
