From: GUEST,Derek Piotr Dear All, I was recently made aware of the Gardner and Chickering book on folk songs; I wondered if any of these textual entries had field-recorded audio counterparts. The book was published in 1939, so I think it seems feasible that there may have been audio of the ballads in the collection taken on dictaphone... I wonder how I might find out; correspondence with U of Michigan yielded nothing. |

The original Gardner and Chickering book was published in 1939, and I have a Folklore Associates reprint published in 1959. The current edition was published by the University of Michigan Press. I don't see anything in the book about the location of the recordings, but maybe I'm not looking in the right place. -Joe- |
