Life-affirming songs about love And loss – beautiful pre-war Cajun bayou music, folk sounds from Ukraine, Poland, and the rural American communities of the late teens to mid 30s – absolutely beautiful records from those days with top notch notes, packaging and curator skill courtesy of Tompkins Square! We love Tompkins Square's folk compilations for the passion on display in each – we're more educated about American and global folk music after each one comes out, but this isn't academic or museum-like listening – it's pulls you right in! The thematic string of songs about love and loss connects disparate music brilliantly here – the full color booklet is integral, though the music tells the story well on its own – with well-written notes by producer Christopher King. Remastered 78s never sound better on CD than they do on Tompkins Square releases. 36 songs on 2CDs: "AImer Et Perdre" by Cleoma & Joe Falcon, "Polka Masurka" by Ukrainska Selska Orchestra, "Je Veux Marier" by Leo Solieau & Moise Robin, "I Will Never Marry" by The Carter Family, "Madam Young, Donnez Moi Votre Plus Jolie Blond" by Dennis McGee & Sady Courville, "La Valse La Prison" by Douglas Bellard & Kirby Riley, "She Lied To Me" by Emry Arthur, "Never Let The Same Bee That Stung You, Sting You Twice" by Richard Rabbit Brown, "One Step A Marie" by Breaux Freres and more.  © 1996-2025, Dusty Groove, Inc.

Used CD Grade

We use the all-encompassing grade "Used CD" for non-new CDs because we only buy and offer used CDs in the best possible condition.

When you purchase a used CD you can expect the disc to be free of all but the lightest of surface marks, the case to be clean (we often change the cases ourselves), and the booklet to be in good shape. Used CDs may show some signs of use, but if there are significant details or defects we describe the item's condition (just like we do with LPs), so look for notes on cutout marks, stickers, promo stamps or other details before ordering.

All of our used CDs are guaranteed to play without skipping or flaws. After you receive a used CD from Dusty Groove, you have 1 week to play it to determine that it plays correctly. If it does not, you can request a return for a full refund.

Condition Notes

If something is relevant, we try to describe it in the notes — especially if it is release or packaging details, or an oddity that is the only wrong thing about the CD. This might include, but isn't limited to, scratches, tracks that skip, case/insert damage or wear, or strictly cosmetic flaws.
