The Guitar Players: One Instrument and Its Masters in American Music
ISBN: 9780803292253 / Angielski / Miękka / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Sallis shows how folk music and a cross-fertilization of traditions and techniques resulted in blues, ragtime, jazz, rock 'n' roll, and country-western. He writes eloquently about...
