With your contribution, Music Maker will assist these musicians to get the recognition they deserve and preserve music we need and cherish.

Reviews

And talk about the absolute sound: you can taste the liquor and sex, smell the dusty roadhouse wood and rural air, touch cheap guitars and out-of-tune upright pianos.
-Wayne Garcia, Absolute Sound
"The Three Best Sounding CDs of All Time"

The performances are all wonderful-sometimes weird, sometimes raunchy, sometimes moving, but truly wonderful.
-The Audiophile Voice

It's full of roots blues, which makes my hair stand straight and fills my eyes with tears.
-Uwe Kirbach, Akustische

An elegant aural passport to a rapidly vanishing era.
-Jas Obrecht, Guitar Player

The sound quality is exquisite, Guitar Gabriel plays powerful deep blues, his vocals charged with emotion. This is a superb sampler of the traditional blues scene in North Carolina.
-David Nelson, Living Blues
