"Radio Radio" Bob Dylan's Theme Time Radio Hour - Vol 5 - disc 4

...As with the other volumes in this series, anyone with a taste for obscure songs mixed in with more familiar tunes will like this set. This is the type of music from an America long since past, when music served a different purpose than today's cookie-cutter music...
...There's an honest, straightforward feel to much if this music. As with all collections of this type, you'll have your favorites, while other tracks might not impress. But that's okay, because what's here is another good example of "American" music, when America was a far different place than today. For anyone with "big" ears, there's much to enjoy here. If you're new to this series, and have ever wondered what people were listening to many decades ago, this (and the other volumes) will fill the bill nicely. The best of this music deserves to be heard, and not relegated to the forgotten heap of "old funny music" from long ago. This entire series is an inexpensive way to tap into the "old" America, and go back in time-and it's time well spent. (Amazon)

For me it is the roots of this American music. Bob Dylan listened to a lot of it before (the Blues of course!) before taking the road to New-York... Really great to listen to. Thanks!
