Editorial Review:
Joe Allen - Wax Poetics (NYC) Spring 2004: In the Basement at 78 RPM: Going waaay back with 78s more precious than your 45s.
Robert Christgau - Village Voice (NYC) 4 Feb 2004: It's hard to imagine Harry Smith declaring either (country breakdowns, hot jazz) folk music. Bussard could care less. A minus.
Glenn Dixon - Washington (DC) City Paper 5 Sept 2003: If you spin Basement and don't wish you could latch onto comet's tail of Joe's calling, you haven't been listening.
Album Description: 24 Rare Gems From The King Of Record Collectors - String Bands, Blues, Jazz, Country, Cajun, Gospel. Profusely illustrated, 28-page full-color booklet includes biographical essay, fully annotated discography, and (online) firsthand accounts of Joe's record collecting adventures. 72 minutes of newly, digitally remastered music. Jewel case, second edition.
About the Artist: Interview / Spotlight on Marshall Wyatt
It's a funny thing. As we embark further on our journey into the new century, we are just now starting to rediscover all the long-forgotten, wonderful things about the 20th. Whether it's bluegrass or early jazz, many music lovers have developed a growing fondness for the musical styles of yesteryear. The result has been a slow but growing interest in older recorded music, music trapped on 78 RPM records, just waiting to be unleashed by modern technology.
Enter Marshall Wyatt. His Old Hat label seeks out obscure vintage tunes and releases them in compilation form on CD, opening up a world unknown to our time - taking us back to the basic roots of popular entertainment that still impact the contemporary world.
So how does Wyatt go about giving this music new life? We ask him about his mission and the love he has for the music of long ago. Mark Hodges - Mish Mash Feb 2002

This is not just another reissue of old 78's .... this is a collection of rarities put together by a man who lives and breathes shellac. The discs on this CD are all prime copies, no elecktrickery; track 21 (Original Stack O'Lee Blues) is the only copy of this disc known to exist, one disc from a label that issued only 55 records....bought in a lot for ten dollars, that someone has since offered thirty thousand dollars for....but collectors never sell, they buy discs to listen to, not trade.
And Joe Bussard is the king of collectors, been at it since his teens, knows his stuff and loves his music...proper music that is. We are lucky that he chooses to share his collection with us and others who've heard his broadcasts.... This ... Read More:
