Uncle Dave Macon -- "The Dixie Dewdrop" -- is a pivotal artist in early country music. Influenced early in life by circus and vaudeville performers who passed through his family's hotel in Nashville, Dave was exposed to many styles of performance and in 1885 he met banjo player Joel Davidson and became captivated by the instrument. By the 1890s, Dave was entertaining stagecoach passengers with banjo tunes and comic antics from a homemade stage on the roof of the family's barn.



Uncle Dave Macon was one of the first country stars to record, the first star of the Grand Ole Opry, and one of the first members elected to the Country Music Hall of Fame.



Possibly one of the finest sets out. If you want to really understand the depth of early country music, then you must have this set. Macon had all the styles and showmanship that influenced everyone from Charlie Poole to Bill Monroe. Every single song that was ever issued by Macon is contained on this set and the book is an incredible read. Most recommended! ~ Ben Dewberry



This is the best box set for the hardcore Uncle Dave Macon fan. If you want to hear live tracks you have never had access to, and if you want to find out what the older tracks that were only released on 78 rpm are all about, you need this box! The book is wonderful with newly found photos and a very detailed discography of the recordings! Probably, a little too rich for the casual fan. ~ M. Bailey
