| Summary |
"Traditional African musical forms have long been accepted as fundamental to the emergence of blues and jazz. This discography brings together recordings that trace the evolution of the African American musical experience, from early wax cylinder recordings made in West Africa to voodoo rituals from the Carribean Basin to the songs of former slaves in the American South"-- Provided by publisher |
