"Not only have a breathtaking array of musical giants come from the South--Elvis Presley, Robert Johnson, Louis Armstrong, Jimmie Rodgers, Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles, to name just obvious examples--but so have a breathtaking array of American music genres. From blues to rock & roll to jazz to country to bluegrass--and areas in between--it all started in the American South. Since its debut in 1996, THE OXFORD AMERICAN's more-or-less annual Southern Music Issue has become legendary for its passionate and wide-ranging approach to music--and for working with some of America's greatest writers. These writers--from Peter Guralnick to Nick Tosches to Susan Straight to Roy Blount, Jr.--probe the lives and legacies of Southern musicians you may or may not yet be familiar with, but whom you'll love being introduced, or reintroduced, to. In one creative, fresh way or another, these writers get close to the essence of music--and why music has such power over us. To celebrate ten years of OXFORD AMERICAN Southern Music Issues, most of which are sold-out or very hard to find, the 55 pieces collected in this dynamic and vast anthology appeal to both music fans and fans of great writing. THE OXFORD AMERICAN BOOK OF GREAT MUSIC WRITING aims to prove that great music writing is not only possible but, in this book, alive and thriving." [jacket copy] "The Oxford American, a regional magazine showcasing southern culture, came out with its first southern music issue in 1996. In addition to articles, it included a complimentary CD featuring an eclectic assortment of music that, according to founder Smirnoff, 'springs from a place where America's favorite musical genres . . . also sprang from.' As stated in the introduction, Smirnoff conceived the music issue as an antidote to Rolling Stone, which he felt had lost the cultural relevance it had previously held. With contributions from Nick Tosches, Robert Palmer, Robert Gordon, and Peter Guralnick, some of the top music writers, Smirnoff reminds us what good music writing is. This compilation is full of little gems, including Susan Straight's tender reminiscence of the music of Al Green, Tom Piazza's harrowing account of his encounter with bluegrass legend Jimmy Martin, and John Fergus Ryan's report of his time backstage with Jerry Lee Lewis in 1970. Also included are Jerry Wexler on Dusty Springfield, Roy Blount Jr. on Ray Charles, and John Jeremiah Sullivan on Chris Bell (of Big Star). Unfortunately, no CD is included."--Booklist. [But wait, there's more: if you are interested, with the purchase of this book, I'll send along, gratis, the dozen more-or-less Southern Music CDs I've saved from the magazine over the years.] Pristine hardcover w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding, wrapped in a stylish & Dolly Parton-approved jacket. Quite presentable & collectible.…
