Description: William Eggleston Rythm Oil Rhythm Oil Stanley Booth Normal 0 MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 London: Jonathan Cape, 1991. First UK edition. Hardcover. With the dust jacket. 254 pages. With the portfolio of color photography by William Eggleston. These photographs were not included in the American edition. A wonderfully evocative picture of music in the South. Here are Stanley Booth's acclaimed writings about the South and the music that emanates from it. Rythm Oil—you don't have to know how to spell "rhythm" to have it in your body and soul—is a potion sold on Beale Street in Memphis. The home of Sun Records, B. B. King, Elvis Presley, Howlin' Wolf, and Jerry Lee Lewis, Memphis is also the home of fantastic stories and broke-down dreams. As Booth makes his way from Memphis to the Mississippi Delta to the depths of the Georgia woods exploring the sounds, the music, and the culture of the American South, "he has produced some of the most gracefully written, thoughtful, and thought-stirring musings on the characters—the famous and the forgotten, the infamous and the unknown—who command the kingdom or drift through the shadowland of the South's rich-chorded patrimony" (Nick Tosches, Los Angeles Times). Very good in a very good plus dust jacket. Yellow boards with light wear. Clean and bright. The dust jacket has minimal wear. Now mylar protected. Not price clipped. Internally, hinges sound. Binding tight. Photographs and text crisp and bright. A very nice copy.
