Originally released in 1952, this treasure trove of blues, gospel, folk and early country has been described, without too much hyperbole, as "the most influential collection in the history of recorded music". This 1997 reissue includes compiler Harry Smith's eccentric booklet from the original set, 68 pages of essays and song credits and enhanced CD-Rom material.

Box has a few minor signs of wear; discs look untouched.
