The Rough Guide To Americana

Various

Audio CD: FDO 2002-01-15
Label: World Music Network

"The World Music Network has released a broad range of "Rough Guides" to certain musical genres, from Cumbia to Flamenco to Klezmer. Most are fantastic compilations. This installment features music that can be described as alternative country, insurgent country, or no depression. The name "Americana" is tricky. I consider Americana music to be American cultural music, or music clearly influenced by American cultural music. This can mean anything from jazz to bluegrass to zydeco. However, many folks define Americana as a specific genre, as is the case here. Rather than debate the point, I'll just let it be. Many of the usual suspects that one would expect on such a compilation, such as Uncle Tupelo, Son Volt, and Whiskeytown, are bypassed in favor of lesser-known performers. The tracks are almost all good, though there are few true stand-outs.
For the uninitiated, I would recommend Exposed Roots: The Best of Alt. Country, Uncle Tupelo's "No Depression," Son Volt's "Trance," and Whiskeytown's "Strangers Almanac." However, for those interested in delving deeper, this compilation will provide an entry point for exploring many under-exposed but worthy artists.. Enjoy!!!..... at 192.0 kb/sec!"

The Rough Guide To Bluegrass

Bluegrass

Audio CD: FDO 2001-10-01
Label: World Music Network

"In 1930s Kentucky, the Blue Grass State, the mandolin of Bill Monroe combined forces with old-time fiddle, fingerstyle banjo, and rhythm guitar to form the Blue Grass Boys – and a new genre was born. The origins of Bluegrass are profiled here with tracks by Monroe’s boys, Larry Sparks and J.D. Crowe as well as a composition by Bill Monroe interpreted by the Bluegrass Album Band. In the late 1960’s the scene developed into ‘Newgrass’ or progressive bluegrass represented here by artists such as Bela Fleck. Alison Krauss and Union Station, Johnson Mountain Boys & Hazel Dickens among others highlight today’s thriving Bluegrass scene.. . at 192 kbps !"
