Paul Oliver rediscovers the wealth of neglected vocal traditions issued on 'Race records'. He discusses the songs of Southern entertainments, and the sacred vocal traditions, from the Baptist and sanctified preaches to the gospel songs of the church congregations and song. Sermons of the 'jack leg' preachers and street evangelists.
