From sound and visual artist Steve Roden, this collection is a hardbound book that contains 2 CDs. The book itself is 150 photographs of musicians and other pitcures that relate to music along with personal notes. The songs themselves, also containing instrumentals and sound effects, are recordings from 1914-1955. What is the point of this? While you listen to the songs, look at the pictures to make the experience even better. You can get this on Bandcamp, and it also comes with a PDF file of the book. (Edited)
