Oxford American Music Issue!

I'm eagerly awaiting my copy, but for now, I got my hands on a jpg of the table of contents. This year's theme is Alabama, and there are some familiar names within:

Franklin Bruno, Zeth Lundy on Ralph "Soul" Jackson, Amanda Petrusich on Odetta, Hayden Childs on The Godsin Brothers, Carl Wilson on Baker Knight, Kim Cooper on Sex Clark Five (this one is available online), Nick Rombes on Sister Gertrude Morgan, and of course that cute kitten on the synthesizer.

There are a few pieces up on the OA's Music Issue page, and all sorts of awesome stuff worth clicking on in the online exclusives section of the website.
