country blues | old-time

The new set from the Field Recorders’ Collective will be out in August, and it includes a CD devoted to Dock Boggs! You can read Reed Martin’s liner notes on the FRC site. Oboyoboy! Dock just got better as he got older, in my opinion - his years of relative musical inactivity notwithstanding. Something about his music epitomizes the relationship a musician has to the body of traditional music… Dock’s music is at once familiar and completely recognizable as products of his own imagination and commitment to his own unique sound.

What a pleasure it’s going to be to hear these recordings!
