Country Music with CD: The Masters ReviewThe author Marty Stuart took many of these pictures so that gives the book a personal touch by the author. Most of the pictures are enlarged and maybe some are enlarged too much and start to break down, but they all are one-of-a-kind photos of country artists who have made the industry what it is. The cover photo is of Johnny Cash when he was very ill and near the end of his life and I hate to see him in that condition, but it represents the kind of artist he was--never quitting, always recording, always creating, always singing, even to the bitter end. And so in this sense the cover photo is a testament to Cash, his life, and his work. I am pleased with the book.Country Music with CD: The Masters Overview
A photographic love letter to the founders and legends of country music by musician and storyteller Marty Stuart.

When Marty Stuart first entered the Hard Rock Cafe, he was impressed to see the work of rock preservationists, yet realized that the artifacts of country music were being lost or destroyed. He set out to change that, becoming a leading curator of roots music memorabilia and photographer of roots founders.

After years of careful preservation, Stuart brings the early days of country to vibrant life again with Country Music: The Masters. In a unique pairing, completely original for a photography book of this scope, an integrated audio CD is included featuring 60 minutes of the fascinating stories behind selected photos. Stuart, a born storyteller, gives readers a glimpse into the subjects and the photograph at the moment the shutter snapped. The CD includes "Dark Bird," an unreleased song dedicated to Johnny Cash, written by Stuart after Cash's death. This new recording marks the first-ever commercial release of the song.

"A photograph can just be a piece of paper with an image on it... But when the observer with his finger on the button has the life experience it takes to understand the life he's shooting, the photograph is a story. Marty's photographs live and breathe. If it's a person, you can hear their thoughts, feel their pain or joy, and read at least a part of their story. If it's a building or a landscape, you can feel the presence of those who have walked there or lived there through the years." - Billy Bob Thornton
