fiddler Jim Baxter, but for the most part this artificial
sorting at the source was hard to buck. Occasionally
black string bands were put on the hillbilly label but
with their name obscured, such as when Vocalion
Records released a set of tunes under "The Tennessee
Chocolate Drops" for their race records and the exact
same set of tunes under "The Tennessee Trio" for the
hillbilly division. It rarely happened the other way
around; when Columbia released the white
Chattanooga duo the Allen Brothers' second record on
their race series, the brothers sued Columbia for
$250,000 for the damage to their reputations. A quarter
of a million dollars in 1927! As they said later, "We were
trying to get into Vaudeville back then. It would have
hurt us in getting dates if people thought we were
black."

There's no way to too highly praise Rhiannon's well thought and spoken essay. Must
reading, indeed!

Thank you for publishing Rhiannon Giddens' IBMA speech. I've been looking for it on
the internet. I attended the free music at IBMA on Saturday. Rhiannon is a wonderful
musician and person. I saw her recently at NC Museum of Art and will again tomorrow
night at UNCG.

What a beautifully written and thoughtfully composed piece! Riannon Giddens is such a
powerhouse on the stage, and her writing is just superb. I have the greatest respect for her
as a musician and as a strong, proud woman. Well done!!!

What a fantastic job she did in researching, writing and living this speech.
The award is more than deserved for her talent and authenticity as an artist.
