Southwest Shuffle documents an important period in country music history. During the '30s and early '40s, hundreds of thousands of "Okies," "Arkies," and other rural folks from around the Southwest resettled in California, in search of work.

Kienzle writes in a vibrant style, reflecting his long-time love for these musical styles.Hinweis: Dieser Artikel kann nur an eine deutsche Lieferadresse ausgeliefert werden.
