Subject: RE: Folk Music of the United States-Lib of Congress
starting in the 1940's the Library of Congress issued a selection of recordings from the Archive of (Ametrican)Folk Song (AFS)/AAFS) first on 78rpm sets, then transfered to LP. https://www.discogs.com/label/302214-the-library-of-congress?page=2 Each album contained a sheaf of notes about the recordings/songs/performers. ROUNDER records transferred the albums to CD. https://www.loc.gov/folklife/rounder.html AFS Rounder
