2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. A FavoriteBy Mr. BakerAlan Lomax has long been a favorite of mine. I am continually amazed at the depth and breadth of his lifes work. This book is not only well written and researched but flows from chapter to chapter with ease. Maybe its my love of the subject and the love of his subjects; but I couldnt put it down and was continually amazed at the impact Lomax had on the USA and the world. What we listen to today; how we listen to it and understand it and most notably who we listen to is in large part a direct result of the lifelong work of John and Alan Lomax; whatever the music is that you listen to. Social consciousness; preserving our heritage; understanding and appreciating the everyman in rural and urban settings were a given in Lomaxs life. Appreciating the musicians as fine artists and that remarkable ear of his to pick out the best and to uncover some of the finest American and World Music ever recorded is truly phenominal. Our lives have been so enriched by this man that he truly should be a houshold name. This fine biography does justice to the man who changed all our lives for the better whether we know it or not. For his work on Leadbelly recordings alone; I will be eternally grateful. When you consider his field recordings in Italy and Spain then you are reaching a plateau no one else has ever or will ever achieve again.Read this book.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
