Reviews"Pickin' on Peachtree presents a wealth of new information and research and establishes the importance of Atlanta in the rise of one of America's most unique art forms." -- Charles Wolfe, author of Tennessee Strings and Kentucky Country "If you enjoy the history of country and bluegrass music, or if you are a fellow Georgian who wants to find out what was going on in Atlanta before Ted Turner, then this book is for you. Clear out a spot on your bookshelf for it. And don't fail to read it before you put it up there!" -- Bluegrass Unlimited "This entertaining book reminds us that Nashville did not always monopolize the country music business. . . . No fan of country music should come away disappointed with this book." -- Bill Malone, Southern Quarterly "Pickin' on Peachtree fills an important gap in the early history of country music and is a resource that every serious student of the genre will want to consult." -- John W. Rumble, American Music
