Anthology Of Folk Music...Revisited

While I don't actually own Harry Smith's definitive and influential collection the anthology Of American Folk Music (I know it's essential listening and definitely something I've meant to pick up) a four disc box-set called "The Harry Smith Project: Anthology of American Folk Music Revisited" will be released on October 24th. The set features selections from several live concerts that paid respect to the man and his work. Some of the artists featured are Beck, Wilco, Elvis Costello, Steve Earle and Lou Reed. Read all about it here.

Smith and his anthology were credited with helping to start the folk revival in the 1960s. Which you can read about here.
