<p>I know this is an old thread, but I thought I'd dredge it up from the past to let folks know that the Alan Lomax archive has a You Tube channel. They haven't posted the entire archive, as I'm sure that would take a couple of decades, but as of today they have posted 358 videos. Some videos are live performances by the artists, while others are phonograph and tape recordings of performances accompanied by pictures. You'll find everything from RL Burnside and John Lee Hooker to Sid Hemphill in…</p>

You'll find everything from RL Burnside and John Lee Hooker to Sid Hemphill in the archive. Most of the sessions appear to have been recorded in the 70s and 80s, but there are performances dating back to the 30s as well.</p>

<p>I saw this and really enjoyed the history in the story as well as some of the early recordings. Upon further research, also found that there was some even earlier recordings from the American south <a href="http://www.loc.gov/folklife/Gordon/index.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">here</a>. Gordons collection has some stuff on metal cylinder starting in the mid 1920's.</p>
