i absolutely need this. im also thinking about getting the carter family box from the same label. i dont know if im cheating with this because the cds might not actuall all come in a box. nevertheless, it is required for sustaining my life.

I just ordered the "Goodbye, Babylon" box on Dust to Digital, thanks in part to a recommendation by D. Wolk on his blog.

i just looked that up. that does look good. i like a well constructed box set as well, so it feels like your really holding something of importance.

What is that? It looks interesting.

http://www.dust-digital.com has more info. It's early 1900s spirituals a la the Harry Smith stuff. I wouldn't be surprised if the folks behind Revenant have something to do with this.

do you know if all alan lomax's stuff is collected in a single box set. ive got vol. 1 and 8 of the southern journey series and almost every track contains some sort of revelation.

AFAIK, there is no definitive Lomax collection. The Southern Journey series is something I want to eventually have all of -- the Alabama one was amazing in parts. And what I've heard of the Partchman Farm "Prison Songs" was up my alley as well. It's just so daunting seeing the reach of what/where Lomax documented, though...he could conceivably have a 100-disc box.

I kind of want the Johnny Cash box set. Kind of. Want.
