AMERICAN MUSIC
This is a very subjective choice of musicians whose music I like to listen to.
As you will find out, it's a wild mixture of black and white, acoustic and electric, rural and urban, silent and loud, female and male, guitar- and piano-oriented, conservative and progressive music, partially of european, mostly of US-american origin. The only selection criterion was my personal taste, so all I have to offer as a principle of classification is the alphabet.

"People keep asking me: What kind of music is that you're playin' ? What does it mean when you play rock 'n roll, country and the blues and mix it all up..."

Bugs Henderson

The discographies published on my "American Music" pages are a non-commercial labor-of-love
and in no way associated with any business firm.

All I know about the resp. artist's / label's musical output is shown here.
To purchase out-of-print records I recommend an ebay, discogs or google search.

And - sorry for that - I have not the time to answer any e-mails asking me about further information,
let alone duplicating out-of-print recordings I happen to own.
