Alan Lomax was a folklorist who collected audio recordings of american music. Great stuff- old blues, folk, and local stuff lumped together as "Americana". I'm sure there are many repositories duplicating these files, but it would be cool if there was a nostr based, distributed way to ensure their preservation. It probably already exists.

I love digging up old recordings that 60s and 70s musicians revived and made popular. It would be a great thread.
