18 classics of early Country music from the genre's pre-eminent originators. The Carter's unprecedented repertoire of Anglo-Saxon folk songs helped them secure a unique position in American musical history by helping establish the Country and Hillbilly genres in the immediate pre war years. These recordings made between 1927 and 1934 are the true roots of Country music. Tracks include ""Wildwood Flower"", ""My Clinch Mountain Home"", ""The Foggy Mountain Top"", ""Keep On The Sunnyside"" and ""I'm Thinking Tonight Of My Blue Eyes"".
