The artists selected for this brief trawl through the recorded history of Country yodelling go back to the days before the word ‘Country’ had been accepted as a description of the music. If it had a name, it was described as rural, folk or old-time music - the sophisticates of New York and other large conurbations dismissed it as ‘hill-billy’. Whatever the appellation, its appeal was widespread, and not just across the vast heartland of America - it was the music of the people, from the people, something that the mass of ordinary people could directly relate to in its sincerity, social comment or humour.
