Sounding for Harry Smith : early Pacific Northwest influences / by Bret Lunsford ; foreword by John Szwed.

Lunsford, Bret, (author.). Szwed, John F., 1936- (writer of foreword.). Elverum, Phil, (writer of preface.).

Summary:

Pacific Northwest musician-historian Bret Lunsford (Beat Happening/D+) unravels a string of mysteries to reveal the avant-garde shards of a 20th century alchemist in his hometown. Harry Everett Smith (1923-1991) was a boyhood resident of Anacortes, Washington for ten years of the Great Depression. Sounding for Harry Smith: Early Pacific Northwest Influences is a visually compelling oral history-based biography that immerses the reader in Salish Sea traditions and discord to explore the myths of a countercultural shaman whose strange impacts on art, music and film resound from studies of place to beat improvisation, through brain paintings to a Grammy Award for his folk music bible. -from back cover.
