Synopsis
Lavishly illustrated with many rare pictures of the subjects of its wide-ranging text, Holly-George Warren and Robert Santelli's companion book to the eponymous PBS series is an extensive overview of the participants in, and their influence on, music which remains in a constant state of change as it is adopted and adapted by successive generations. The banner "roots music" covers a cornucopia of styles and genres, from tejano, to zydeco, to gospel, to contemporary Native American music, and these 11 essays provide a unifying perspective in any beginning exploration of this rich vein of American culture. With a foreword by Bonnie Raitt, who has done as much as anyone to popularize the roots movement over the past few decades, AMERICAN ROOTS MUSIC is a fine primer for anyone with more than a passing interest in the genre.
