DEFINITIVE AMERICANA - 50 ORIGINAL AMERICANA CLASSICS 2CD NEW/SEALED It’s all too easy to assume that, thanks to its sheer size and effect on the world via the mass media and electronic communication, American music and culture is one homogenous entity. Unlike the ever-present burger chains, though, there is much more variety to be had if you scratch the surface. The 50 tracks showcased here each offer their own riches and rewards as representatives of Americana in its many forms. It’s much that expresses hopes and fears in straight-talking lyrics with memorable tunes to match – a description of Pete Seeger’s output that surely applies to all. Track Listing CD 1 1.
