The best magazine
Now I won't always consider Oxford American the best magazine out there, but this issue I do. It's their annual music issue. It comes with some of the best writing about music and it comes with a cd. It talks about and showcases on the cd some southern music that you might not ever hear, and it mixes all genres together. Where else would you hear artists such as Howard Tate, Erma Franklin, The Wilburn Brothers, Moondog, Blind Tom, Sammi Smith with such artists as Elvis Presley, Buddy Holly, Loretta Lynn and Ricky Skaggs. And for every song and artist on the cd there is an article about them in the magazine. I love it. For someone like me, who thinks they know so much about this type of music, it's a learning experience. I always learn something I didn't know when I read this issue of the magazine.
This is the fourth music issue. They've missed at least a year, probably two, due to almost being canceled, changing owners and generally having a hard time of surviving as a magazine. Buy this magazine, if nothing it's worth buying just to make sure that the music issue comes out every year.
