[Dixielandjazz] Emmett Miller CD

[Patrick Skiffington]

Emmett Miller's complete discography is available for download at
archive.org. it's a shame that the inventor of American popular music is
marginalized because he performed in blackface. There is a *fantastic* book
about him by Nick Tosches, "Where Dead Voices Gather". Check it out at your
local library if you can.
Cheers!
