And he's still traveling, having covered more than seven million miles back and forth across Canada from his Saskatchewan home Eight Miles North and One Mile East of Wroxton. He's played most Indian reserves and many Inuit communities... Smilin' Johnnie is not your average country singer. He was never mesmerized by Nashville.

Hank Williams (1923--1953) is revered in the top tier of the country-music pantheon, and his forlorn ballads are classics in the country songbook. An inspired, natural genius, Williams was the complete country balladeer. Though he knew almost nothing about the technicalities of music, his plaintive songs---Cold, Cold Heart, - -Your Cheatin' Heart, - and -I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry---affirm that he knew everything about its heart. Williams was to country music what Elvis Presley was to rock 'n' roll. With his legend already firmly established, he was only twenty-nine when he died...

ISBN: 9781578069828 / Angielski / Miękka / 514 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Jimmie Rodgers (1897-1933), the first performer elected to the Country Music Hall of Fame, was a folk hero in his own lifetime and has been idolized by fans and emulated by performers ever since.

Nolan Porterfield's biography banishes the rumors and myths that have long shrouded the Blue Yodeler's life story. Unlike previous writings about Rodgers, Porterfield's book derives from extensive and detailed research into original...

Folk Metaphysics: Mystical Meanings in Traditional Folk Songs and Spirituals
ISBN: 9781597310772 / Angielski / Miękka / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In the last century, authors and psychologists like Robert Graves, Carl Jung and Joseph Campbell reminded us that folklore is often full of deep symbolic truths, truths that the folk themselves are usually unaware of. And they also taught us - just as Plato did, 2400 years ago -- that myth and folklore constitute a philosophical language, where images (as in dreams, holy icons, and symbolic poetry) can carry a great burden of meaning. Few seem to realize, however, that certain works of art conventionally considered to be unconscious products of the folk imagination were quite consciously and...
