Product Description
Nick Tosches spent 20 years searching for facts about Emmett Miller, the yodeling blackface performer whose songs prefigured jazz, country, blues, and much of the popular music of the twentieth century. Starting with a handful of 78 rpm records and ending at a graveyard in Macon, Georgia, Tosches chronicles a remarkable journey of discovery that illuminates Millers life, his legacy, and the world of American popular music. Long celebrated as one of Americas leading writers on music and popular culture, Nick Tosches is increasingly recognized as one of the most original writers at work in America today. In the tradition of Nicholas Dawidoffs bestselling The Catcher Was a Spy and Peter Guralnicks hugely successful Searching for Robert Johnson, Toschess Where Dead Voices Gather brings a little-known figure into our collective consciousness.
