About this product

Product Information

Together with Play Me Something Quick and Devilish (2013) and Fiddler's Dream (2017), this third volume on Missouri fiddling represents a lifelong fascination with the world of music. As in the previous two volumes, Howard Marshall seeks out the people, stories, and communities that make informal, traditional music for their own enjoyment, particularly folk-singing, bluegrass, old-time fiddling, and jazz. Play Me Something Quick and Devilish addressed what we know of fiddle and dance music from the early French settlements in the mid-1700s colonial period into the World War I era and the Jazz Age. Fiddler's Dream recounted the 1920s and moved through the Great Depression and World War II years and stopped in the 1960s. Keep It Old-Time picks up the saga in the complicated 1960s and winds down in the early twenty-first century. Along the way, Marshall presents historical and documentary discussions of music interwoven with ample quotes from musicians and, at certain points, his own personal reflections and experiences in the music scene. Some of the topics featured in this volume are the folk music revival of the 1960s, the emergence of folk and bluegrass festivals, the continuation of fiddle contests, the evolving education of musicians, and many profiles of musicians, famous both locally and nationally. Oral history, archival photographs, and transcriptions of selected fiddle tunes complement the text as does the companion CD of selected songs.

Reviews
"An important work not only on traditional Missouri fiddling, but also on traditional music in the U.S. in the 20th century. . . . It will be a valuable resource to anyone interested in instrumental folk music in the U.S., either as a complement to the first two volumes, or as a stand-alone volume."-- Sharon Graf , Professor of Ethnomusicology, University of Illinois, Springfield, "In this information-packed third volume of his Missouri fiddle music trilogy, Marshall brings the stories of the state's fiddle music to a personal level by focusing largely on the fiddlers themselves, along with descriptions of specific events and organizations. An active Missouri fiddler himself for many decades, as well as a folklore professor, now emeritus, at the University of Missouri, he had first-hand knowledge of most of the people, places, and events about which he wrote. Marshall offers brief discussions about the different fiddling styles in the state--from Ozarks style, to Little Dixie style, to Texas style, and beyond--and he discusses how Missouri fiddling fit into larger cultural movements such as the folk revival and the fiddle contest scene, but he wisely avoids discussions about boundaries and authenticity. Instead, he honors all the fiddlers with detailed profiles, often including lengthy interview quotes. It's wonderful to see these fiddlers, who were musical stars within the typically rural or less-affluent cultural domains in which they thrived, lifted up and given the credit they deserve for impacting Missouri's cultural landscape."-- Drew Beisswenger , University of Arkansas, author of North American Fiddle Music: A Research and Information Guide, "In three important volumes, Howard Marshall has woven together the modern history of how Missouri fiddling gradually consolidated from a spectrum of local styles into serving as a significant presence within the ever-evolving contours of traditional, home-based music. A valuable repository of illuminating, and frequently amusing, personal vignettes."-- Mark Wilson , The University of Pittsburgh, The North American Traditions Collection

Book did not match listing photo (pic2) The listings only photograph was of an autograph page (pic 1) which means this seller did not photograph the actual item being sold. The seller had to be contacted twice to get a full refund. The shipping cost was very expensive and item was poorly packaged. I have been buying items from ebay for many years and this is the first time I have delt with a seller whose listing was so blatantly dishonest. Buyers beware!

$10 shipping and took over 2 weeks, refused to give tracking number, the cover is bent but they did not disclose that, poorly packaged and arrived open, overall bad experience and customer service- they just send copy and paste messages. I would avoid this seller.
