Celebrating the dark origins of our most American music; Country reveals a wild shadowland of history that encompasses blackface minstrels and yodeling cowboys; honky-tonk hell and rockabilly heaven; medieval myth and musical miscegenation; sex; drugs; murder; and rays of fierce illumination on Elvis; Jerry Lee Lewis; and others; famous and forgotten; whose demonology is Americas own. Profusely and superbly illustrated; Country stands as one of the most brilliant explorations of American musical culture ever written.
