The CD begins with one of the earliest recordings in country music, a 1922 recording by Shirley Spalding. Along the way, you’ll also hear some superb and historic recordings by many legendary names in early country music including Vernon Dalhart, Posey Rorer’s North Carolina Ramblers and Ernest V Stone.

This review is from: Edison Collection: Country Music Pioneers on Ediso (Audio CD)

I bought this CD because it has 2 songs on it that were recorded by my Great Grandfather, who was the Tennessee state fiddle champion, in 1925! So, of course I love it!
