Combining a highspirited history of country music's roots with vivid portraits of its primary performers, Don't Get above Your Raisin' examines the close relationship between 'America's truest music' and the workingclass culture that has constituted its principal source, nurtured its development, and provided its most dedicated supporters.Widely recognized as country music's ranking senior authority, Bill C. Malone explores how the music's defining themes (home and family, religion, rambling, frolic, humor, and politics) have emerged out of the particularities of working people's daytoday lives. He traces the many contradictory voices and messages of a music that simultaneously extols the virtues of home and the joys of rambling, the assurances of the Christian life and the ecstasies of hedonism, the strength of workingclass life and the material lure of middleclass aspirations. The resulting tensions, Malone argues, are a major reason for the music's enduring appeal.
