About Down In The Basement: Joe Bussard's Treasure Trove
Review If you spin Basement and don't wish you could latch onto comet's tail of Joe's calling, you haven't been listening. -- Glenn Dixon - Washington City Paper Sept 5, 2003In the Basement at 78 RPM: Going waaay back with 78s more precious than your 45s - faculty.sunydutchess.edu/allen/waxpoetics/volume-7.pdf -- Joe Allen - Wax Poetics Spring 2004It's hard to imagine Harry Smith declaring either (country breakdowns, hot jazz) folk music. Bussard could care less. A minus. -- Robert Christgau - Village Voice Feb 4, 2004 About the Artist Interview / Spotlight on Marshall Wyatt It's a funny thing. As we embark further on our journey into the new century, we are just now starting to rediscover all the long-forgotten, wonderful things about the 20th. Whether it's bluegrass or early jazz, many music lovers have developed a growing fondness for the musical styles of yesteryear. The result has been a slow but growing interest in older recorded music, music trapped on 78 RPM records, just waiting to be unleashed by modern technology. Enter Marshall Wyatt. His Old Hat label seeks out obscure vintage tunes and releases them in compilation form on CD, opening up a world unknown to our time - taking us back to the basic roots of popular entertainment that still impact the contemporary world. So how does Wyatt go about giving this music new life? We ask him about his mission and the love he has for the music of long ago. Mark Hodges - Mish Mash Feb 2002
