VARIOUS ARTISTS Fonotone Records (Highly sought-after 2005 US limited edition 5-CD box set, released by Dust-to-Digital, dedicated to the legendary Fonotone label founded by the iconic collector and archivist Joe Bussard. Featuring five meticulously compiled CDs containing nearly 150 tracks, all recorded between 1956 and 1970 — many of which appear here for the very first time on CD. Each disc is thematically curated, with titles such as Jug In The Shade, Flight Of Fonotone, Some Summer Day, Basement Blues, and Wild Mountain Ramble. Expect a staggering range of American roots music: blues, old-time country, jug band, gospel, and early bluegrass, all captured in Bussard’s Frederick, Maryland basement studio. Housed in a stunning heavy-duty custom box, beautifully designed in a retro style evoking the original charm of Fonotone. The box lid is decorated with the Fonotone logo and a collage of artist names that recorded for the label, including Blind Thomas, Mississippi Swampers, Possum Holler Boys, Jolly Joe’s Jug Band, and many more. The box has some light age wear and the content remains in a 'near mint' condition. Please see below for more details about content)
TRACKLISTING AND EXTRA INFORMATIONA lavish 160-page hardcover book filled with rare photographs, extensive liner notes, artist biographies, and detailed session information.
Reproductions of original letters and promotional materials, including correspondence from John Glenn (yes, the astronaut!) showing the deep cultural reach of Bussard’s DIY operation.
A heavy-duty Fonotone-branded bottle opener, a quirky and authentic nod to Joe Bussard’s old-time hospitality.
High-quality art prints and facsimile memorabilia that transport you straight into the intimate, fiercely independent spirit of Fonotone.
