This is the history of country music all on one disc, from Jimmie Rodgers and the Carter Family all the way through to Iris DeMent and Emmylou Harris, with stops along the way for names like Cash, Jones, Monroe and Haggard. Even if country isn't your thang, there's no excuse for not owning this; it's America in the twentieth century, presented for your edification. Besides the names already mentioned, you've got Kitty Wells doing "It Wasn't God Who Made Honky-Tonk Angels" and Doc Watson doing "Blue Railroad Train." Nothing less than brilliant, as a non-country singer once whined. --Chris Nickson
