Listening List for Class on March 24, 2017

FIRST:IMPORTANT NOTICE!!!!

Remember I'm going to be ending the first elective (the American People) between 14.45-14.50 and then start the second (This one - The African American Musical Tradition) at 15.00 or as soon thereafter as possible.

Anyhoo.... Here's this weeks's list!
There's a couple of old (but important) recordings but most are from the late 1930's onward when technology became much better.

I'm undecided on the exact class contents so there might be some later additions, but this will get you started.

The lyrics aren't ready yet (though there's a lot more instrumentals than usual) and might not be until Thursday or so... keep checking back!
