 News: County Sales Offering Photo Book by Marty Stuart

Music NewsBMNN wrote: on Nov. 26, 2008:
Country Music: The MastersThose who have followed Bluegrass for a while will know that Marty Stuart is a man of many talents: he has made a name for himself both in Bluegrass and Country music, is a great spokesman for the music, as well as a historian and student who has put together an amazing collection of artifacts like instruments, ephemera and clothing items of past musicians (the huge number of “Nudie suits” is an amazing collection in itself). So it may not be a great surprise to find that he is also an excellent photographer, and this book is a marvelous and beautifully presented sampling of his work since the early 1970s.


While there are more shots of country artists, there’s plenty of space devoted to Bluegrass--Marty got his start as a 12-year old mandolin picker with the Sullivan Family and then as a member of Lester Flatt & the Nashville Grass. There are wonderful portraits of Lester & Earl, Ralph Stanley, Bob & Sonny Osborne, Doc Watson, Curly Seckler, Bill Monroe and so many more.


Marty Stuart Book - Making of Country Music: The Masters

From the country field the subjects include Johnny Cash, Merle Haggard, Porter Wagoner, Gene Autry, Merle Travis and Connie Smith (now Marty’s wife). While most of the book is in black & white, there are plenty of lovely color shots and spreads that depict old show posters, fancy stage costumes, instruments, album covers, and many country stars.

This is not just another book of photographs, and to call it a "coffee table" volume would almost be an insult. It’s a remarkable work, done with love and good taste, and should warm the heart of anyone who grew up on country and Bluegrass music. It will make a wonderful gift! (Weighs 5 or 6 pounds!)

County Sales has this wonderful book available for purchase here. Just in time for the holidays.
