WHITE SPIRITUALS FROM THE SACRED HARP
Field Recordings by Alan Lomax 1959
New World Records 1977

http://www30.zippyshare.com/v/90027735/file.html

Many listeners will be surprised to learn that this fiery choral sound comes not from somewhere in eastern Europe but from a rural white singing convention in northern Alabama. Even more astonishing is that the hundred-odd farmers, country lawyers, tradesmen, and wives and children were sight-singing this counterpoint from printed scores composed in some cases by members of the chorus. They were using the "Sacred Harp," a compendium of 573 four-part folk hymns, which has been the bible of the southern rural singing-school movement since 1840. -- Alan Lomax 1959

Complete with a 23 page booklet written by Alan Lomax outlining each song and including the written score.

BONUS 3 OF 4

MUDDY WATERS - Fathers and Sons (1969) [2001 MCA-Chess 088 112 648-2 Expanded Remaster] MP3 @320

http://www4.zippyshare.com/v/33178644/file.html

Blues legend Muddy Waters and his piano player Otis Spann, with veteran Sam Lay behind the drum kit, teamed up with three young white musicians to record this 1969 album: Guitarist Michael Bloomfield, bassist Donald 'Duck' Dunn (of Booker T & the Memphis Group), and harpist Paul Butterfield.
And the results are magnificent. 26-year old Paul Butterfield shows off some truly excellent harmonic playing, Dunn is rock-solid and funky, and the combined forces of Bloomfield and Muddy Waters himself produces some terrific guitar playing.
The sound is great, too, and Otis Spann (who is supposedly one of the "Fathers" of the album's title, even though he was only in his late 30s at the time) plays some of the best blues piano you'll ever hear.

Many thanks for all the Brooklyn Doo-Wop volumes,& the Alabama Sacred Harp music. The 2 styles don't go together very well, except in their uniqueness--& that's one of the things I like the most about this blog.
