Where The Dead Voices Gather by Nick Tosches

For twenty years, Nick Tosches searched for facts about the life of Emmett Miller, a yodelling blackface performer whose songs prefigured jazz, country, blues and much of the popular music of the twentieth century. Beginning with a handful of 78 rpm records and ending at a tombstone in a Macon, Georgia graveyard, Tosches pieces together a life - and illuminates the spirit of musicmarkers from Homer to the Rolling Stones. This is a brilliant, inspired journey by one of the most original writers at work today.
Nick Tosches has written several books on popular music COUNTRY, UNSUNG HEROES OF ROCK 'N' ROLL. He lives New York and is a contributing editor of Vantiy Fair.
