Description | This essay examines the mutations of the "genes" which led to the expression of the early blues. Imbedded in the text are numerous examples of lyrics and cover-art from 1904-1928. This essay also stresses the impact of new technologies such as the phonograph, the radio, and the row-crop-tractor; as well as the intra- and inter-racial tensions, fiscal fluctuations, boll-weevil invasions and societal upheavals which mutated the blues genes. |

<string>This plugin will harvest all files in a subdirectory of a given base URL. The Base URL is expected to not contain a trailing slash [/]. The manifest page must be located at /lockss/manifest.html of the base directory. Useful for small, static collections with no defined structure that would lend them to be divided into AU's. Please test this plugin with your collection before deploying, and if it is not functioning properly, write a new plugin. Any changes to this plugin itself should be carefully considered and tested before deployment as it effects multiple collections.</string>
