One of my regrets is I never did get to record Scrapper and Shirley playing together, and they played very, very well together - Art Rosenbaum talks about Scrapper Blackwell and Shirley Griffith, Big Road Blues radio show, January 2010

Alan's 1940 "List of American Folk Songs on Commercial Records," compiled with the help of his sister Bess and a young Pete Seeger, was the culmination of many hours spent listening to an estimated 3000 pre-war hillbilly and race records. It's now available digitally as a PDF through the Root Hog Or Die blog run by ACE's Nathan Salsburg, who offers context for the list and its influence.
