Here is what people are saying about the Anthology of American Folk Music (Edited by Harry Smith)

"Hill Billy music"	2009-11-03
- Reviewed By User: A1101H4K41BI0W
Music like this was once broad cast on every little radio station in the rural south and much of it predates that. I don't just resemble that remark. I can recall the stuff as a kid. It does kind of sound like AM radio or a gramophone but this stuff pretty much predates the more modern electronics. The only way to get this stuff to sound like modern multichannel music is to rerecord it from scratch and they used the originals whenever they could.

"The Roots Is The Toots"	2009-09-02
- Reviewed By User: AGEIT17HENDIS
It is no secret that the reviewer in this space has been on something of a tear of late in working through a litany of items concerning American roots music, a music that he first discovered in his youth with the folk revival of the early 1960s and with variations and additions over time has held in high regard for his whole adult life. Thus a review of musicologist (if that is what he though he was, it is not all that clear from his "career" path that this was so) Harry Smith's seminal "Anthology Of American Folk Music" is something of a no-brainer. Since we live in a confessional age, however, here is the odd part. As familiar as I am with Harry Smith's name and place in the folk pantheon, his seemingly tireless field work and a great number of the songs in his anthology this is actually the first time that I have heard the whole thing at one sitting and in one place. Oh sure, back in the days of my ill-spent youth listening to an old late Sunday folk show I would perk up every time the name Harry Smith came up as the "discoverer" of some gem of a song from the 1920s or 1930s but to actually listen to ,or even attempt to find, the whole compilation then just didn't happen. In 1997 Smithsonian/Folkway, as least threoretically in my case, remedied that problem with the release of a high quality (given the masters) six CD set of old Harry's 80 plus recordings. Not only that but, as is usual with Smithsonian, a very nicely done booklet with all kinds of good information from the likes of Greil Marcus and the late folklorist Eric Von Schmidt (of "Light Rain" and Joshua's Gone Barbados" among others fame) accompanies this set. That booklet is worth the price of admission alone on this one. But here is the funny thing after running through the whole collection. I mentioned above that this was the first time that I heard the collection as a whole. Nevertheless, over time I have actually heard (and reviewed in this space), helter-skelter, most of the material in the collection, except a few of the more exotic gospel songs. So I guess that youth was not so ill-spent after all. If the "roots is toots" for you, get this thing. Note: For a list of the all the tracks in the entire collection just Google "the Harry Smith Collection" and click onto Wikipedia's entry for Harry Smith.

"an important and amazing collection"	2009-06-06
- Reviewed By mattfive
For lovers of old folk music, this collection is a must have. The music is absolutely amazing, from the ballads to the gospel tunes, and the novelty songs, it just is incredible start to finish. It's also an important work in the history of acoustic music when one considers the influence it's had on so many musicians. This set is lots of great listening.

"HARRY SMITH ANTHOLOGY OF AMERICAN FOLK MUSIC"	2009-06-01
- Reviewed By User: A22RHSCKLKO8EA
I bought this item as a gift. I am not necessairly a folk music enthusists. However, the delivery and order process was a pleasent experience and what I would expect from Amazon. I have made other purchaes from Amazon in the past and continue to have good experiences when ordering from them. The gift of Harry Smith's Anthology of American Folk Music was a big hit with the recipient. It appears the CD set was well documented with booklets and a guide explaining the history and recorded dates of the music. This was a 6 CD set with the CD's packaged as two CD's to a case. If you enjoy American Folk Music, you will find this collection to be a valuable listening experience.

"not happy"	2009-03-17
- Reviewed By User: A32MGDHM1XT4UO
The price dropped after I ordered this and before I even received the package. Amazon would not give me the lower price saying that they don't adjust "completed" orders. So they consider an order is "complete" as soon as you order..not when you receive it. This was my last order.

"Ghosts aplenty inside these tunes"	2007-09-26
- Reviewed By User: A356RFKNIG043B
There are some truly haunting performances here, and some funny ones, and some of everything, really. This stuff is so far deeper and weirder and spookier than any folk I've ever heard. It's the motherlode; Harry Smith wandered around and got these recordings before radio started, and thus we get true folk music, passed down the generations and from that area, or from the motherland of the musicians, with the spirit of the New World. The vibes are palpable, varied, and intense. Lots of "mistakes", but so much feeling that missed notes only add to the experience. If you've ever liked any folk music at all, whether Leadbelly, the Seegers, the Carter family, early Dylan, or if you need to know where real country music comes from, this is your collection. Too many highlights to list. Beautiful and detailed booklet with notes on each tune makes it even better...though listening first with no preconceptions and creating your own story for the songs is probably an even better way to let this stuff seep into your subconscious. Best of all, it's probably at your local library.
