This page (as with the rest of this site) is a WIP. Thanks for your patience! Photographs and analyses are to come.

General / Various Artists

• New Victor Records (1923) Craziest thing ever: the leaflet that announced the release of the first country music record in history.

• Little Jimmy Dickens Song Folio No. 1 (1950) Signed by Jimmy Dickens.

Lester Flatt and the Nashville Grass

Lester Flatt, Earl Scruggs and the Foggy Mountain Boys

• Foggy Mountain Boys: Number Three Edition of Radio Favorites (1949) An early and humble songbook for the Foggies. I date it (see link for analysis) to early 1949, approximately one year after the band's founding.
• Lester Flatt, Earl Scruggs and the Foggy Mountain Boys: Song and Picture Album 1951 Edition (1951)

• Lester Flatt, Earl Scruggs and the Foggy Mountain Boys: Radio and TV Album and Song Book No. 2 (1956) A FASCINATING look at the band's recent bus acquisition. 1955-1956 introduced a series of changes to the Flatt & Scruggs ensemble, pulling the band into a new era that had lasting consequences: both for their prosperous rise, and setting up the first domino for their fall.
• Lester Flatt, Earl Scruggs and the Foggy Mountain Boys: Picture Album and Songbook No. 3 (1957)
• Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs Picture Album Songbook (1962) I'm sorry, I can't hear you above a songbook with Lester's and Earl's signatures on it.
