Nothing but the Blues by Lawrence Cohn
Our most passionate music, rooted in ancient Africa but brought to blossom in America at the doorstep of the twentieth century.
"Nothing But the Blues is a gorgeous object, packed full of rare photographs and written by a virtual who's who of blues experts" -- Boston Globe "Extensively illustrated, comprehensive volume...Cohn does full justice to this rich and vibrant chapter of American history." -- Publishers Weekly "Lavishly illustrated, well researched, and written in a lively style, this book should become a standard on the topic." -- Library Journal
Blues historian Lawrence Cohn is the producer of a massive blues reissue project undertaken by Sony Music/Legacy Recordings. The premiere two-CD set in the series, featuring the music of blues giant Robert Johnson, not only earned Cohn a Grammy award, but has sold some half-million copies in the U.S. alone--an unprecedented number for a historical reissue.
