Fantastic Gift!
I bought this for a friend for her retirement! She was smilin' from ear to ear!.


Good Collection But Poor Quality
There are just so many songs! My only real complaint is that the sound quality is really bad. I have spent the past two year listening to every scrap of Carter Family music that I could find, and I was very excited to see this on Amazon. I realize that most of these were probably transferred from old records, but I have encountered other albums in the past where the sound quality was as crisp as a newly recorded song. I just feel like there was little effort put into the restoration of these tracks.

A new favorite
There's a lot of music in my house - including my new Jimmie Rodgers JSP "box set" - that isn't being listened to because of this stuff. Almost no fluff, which is quite a statement for the amount of music here. Gorgeous!.


Mountain Classic
The Carter collection is a 'must have' for lovers of mountain and county music. A major root of many types of modern musical expression.


Indispensable
This JSP collection faithfully documents the original 78 rpm recordings in chronological order. The Carter Family is the archetype of American Music. Though the digital remastering is basic, having the complete sessions is indispensable. .
