Hi,

The last two weeks or so I've been putting some research articles on my web-site with music. I hope everyone can use them:

http://bluegrassmessengers.com/roots-old-time--bluegrass-articles.aspx

Several of them are farily extensive like Perrow's Songs and Rhymes of the South: http://bluegrassmessengers.com/songs-and-rhymes.aspx

This is the first important play-party article from Ames in 1911:http://bluegrassmessengers.com/the-missouri-play-party--ames-1911.aspx

This is nice- Songs of the Cumberlands: http://bluegrassmessengers.com/songs-of-the-cumberlands--owens-1936-joafl.aspx

I put all of the Lomax 1939 Recording Trip- it's unfinished.

If anyone has any suggestions for articles I can add let me know. Some of the articles are not yet edited.

Richie
