Third of Never/Electric Forgiveness founder Jon Dawson talks to author David Menconi, whose new book Oh Didn't They Ramble details the history of the legendary Rounder Records label.
As a man of few words, just let me say, Rounder Records made me. . and vicey-versey.
— George Thorogood, Rounder Records artist

Long one of my favorite music writers, David Menconi has blessed us with a wonderful yarn about the most unlikely of success stories imaginable. Rounder Records has long been the tiny label that somehow could and did. They were ahead of their times in almost every imaginable way and succeeded by going against every grain and trend. An excellent book and a blast to read.
— Patterson Hood, writer, performer and co-founder, Drive-By Truckers

The Rounders felt a calling to share what they loved and ended up making history while trying to preserve it. The sheltered sounds of traditional American roots music have gratefully been amplified by Rounder’s passion for sharing the good news. This was their business of music…The story of Rounder Records has been well and fully told in this fine book revealing a mission of the heart.
— Alison Krauss, Rounder Records artist

Featuring a forward by Robert Plant, Oh Didn't They Ramble is available at your favorite independent bookstore. To order online, visit www.quailridgebooks.com.
