American Roots Music Compilations - Page 2

There are thousands of music compilations and anthologies out there. This list focuses on the various styles of music that constitute American roots music. I have tried to keep the list to pre-1960 music (there are exceptions), and I did not include releases by a single artist or group. Included are bluegrass, blues, ballads, folk, country, early jazz, R&B, gospel, cowboy, and ethnic music. Compilations range from single discs to large multi-volume sets. This list is not even close to exhaustive.
