The Rise and Fall of Paramount Records 1917-1932, Volume 1
Jack White and the fine people at Third Man Records have taken the preservation of blues and roots music to a higher level. This new set of Paramount Records recordings is stunning. They've described this not as a box set but as a piece of furniture. The handcrafted box is just the beginning. You get 6 180 gram records pressed on burled chestnut vinyl with hand engraved, blind-embossed gold-leaf labels. The USB drive has 800 songs from 127 artists. There's so much more to this set. It's a bit pricey but it's also one of the most unique sets you're likely to ever find. Read more about it and order HERE
