A STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
With the current renaissance of folk and jazz music there has come a proliferation of recordings purporting to represent these sign posts of Americana . It is well nigh impossible to successfully manufacture those unselfconscious original sounds today . They were a product of the times and the people . Though many of these modern recordings are slick and pleasant they are neither jazz nor folk music as origin ally performed . Authentic performances of indigenous and unselfconscious music of the people by the " minstrels " of the people seldom have enjoyed the benefits of big - city recording studios and techniques . However , some of these were recorded , albeit under rather difficult conditions and on not so high - fi 78 r.p.m. discs during the thirties and forties . Most of them have been out of print for years and exist only as well worn 78's in the collections of a few buffs . It is the avowed purpose of the Archive of Folk & Jazz Music to seek out original recordings and to selectively and carefully make them available to the public as relatively high quality L. P.'s at reasonable prices . The illustrious names represented in this line have long been known and revered by dedicated folk & jazz buffs . Now these historic record ings may be enjoyed by the modern generation , most of whom were not even born when these historic slices of folk lore and heritage were performed . In order to transcribe these oft - times worn , poor quality 78 r.p.m. discs our engineers spend literally hundreds of hours tediously splicing , editing and adjusting . A microscope has to be used just to select the proper stylus for playback . As many as 500 splices may be made in one recording to eliminate the " pops " and distortions with out impairing the performance . In any case - the performance comes first and you will find yourself ignoring the distortions as you become enthralled with the sincerety and soul of the artists . The Archive of Folk & Jazz Music is proud to bring these recordings to you . If your reactions are favorable , we can continue the " good fight " and bring you more great performances - Good listening !
