eBay • For Your Consideration: • A First Edition, First Printing in (a VG+ | Unread) HARDCOVER: • “THE OXFORD AMERICAN BOOK OF GREAT MUSIC WRITING” (University of Arkansas Press, 2008) (Hardcover, First Edition, First Printing) • FOREWORD BY VAN DYKE PARKS • EDITED BY MARC SMIRNOFF • “GOD bless America and GOD bless THE OXFORD AMERICAN BOOK OF GREAT MUSIC WRITING.” —DOLLY PARTON • “Since its debut in 1996, THE OXFORD AMERICAN’s more-or-less annual SOUTHERN MUSIC ISSUE has become legendary for its passionate and wide-ranging approach to music and for working with some of America’s greatest writers. These writers―from PETER GURALNICK to NICK TOSCHES to SUSAN STRAIGHT to WILLIAM GAY―probe the lives and legacies of Southern musicians you may or may not yet be familiar with, but whom you’ll love being introduced, or reintroduced, to…. To celebrate ten years of SOUTHERN MUSIC ISSUES, most of which are sold-out or very hard to find, the fifty-five essays collected in this dynamic, wide-ranging, and vast anthology appeal to both music fans and fans of writing.” —THE PUBLISHER • “If something calls itself ‘GREAT’ in a title, you have to wonder. But in this anthology from a decade of annual SOUTHERN MUSIC ISSUES of the Arkansas-based literary quarterly, it’s no exaggeration.” —NEW YORK POST • “[THE SOUTHERN MUSIC ISSUE’s] one wonderful conceit is its obstinate refusal to acknowledge the marketplace.” —SUSAN VOWELL, SALON • “The magazine’s writers share a passion for music, a respect for ideas, and a flair for writing.” —BBC • “All public and academic libraries catering to serious music fans should purchase this gem of an anthology.” —LIBRARY JOURNAL (STARRED REVIEW) • “Aside from the consistently high quality of the writing, the essays in this collection all manage the nifty trick of seamlessly incorporating the intensely personal experience of listening to music into the larger social and cultural context…. A must-have for any music loving reader.” —SHELF AWARENESS • “Smirnoff has accomplished something great with this book. Stubbornly against the interests of an industry preoccupied by facts, he’s putting the spotlight on good writing and good music instead.” —CREATIVE LOAFING • “Snatch a copy of this superb anthology.” —BIBLIOBUFFET • “This compilation is full of little gems, including SUSAN STRAIGHT’s tender reminiscence of the music of AL GREEN, TOM PIAZZA’s harrowing account of his encounter with bluegrass legend JIMMY MARTIN, and JOHN FERGUS RYAN’s report of his time backstage with JERRY LEE LEWIS in 1970. Also included are JERRY WEXLER on DUSTY SPRINGFIELD, ROY BLOUNT JR. on RAY CHARLES, and JOHN JEREMIAH SULLIVAN on CHRIS BELL (of BIG STAR).” —BEN SEGEDIN, BOOKLIST • “Unearths wonderful stories on longtime favorites and introduces several new discoveries…. A pleasant voyage for adventurous fans of both good writing and good music.” —JOEL FRANCIS, THE DAILY RECORD • “Five Stars…a great sanctuary of music writing!!!” —GEORGE L. GUTTLER, AMAZON REVIEW • “This is such a great read, I’ll probably always keep reading it. It will be one of my ‘go-to’ books. Love it!” —HUNTER JONES, GOODREADS REVIEW • “Absolutely stunning collection of articles originally published in THE OXFORD AMERICAN. The collection is at its best when the writer gets a chance to wander away from the standard music article and speaks to what makes the music beautiful. —ASH CROWE, GOODREADS REVIEW • CONTRIBUTORS: JOHN JEREMIAH SULLIVAN | WILLIAM GAY | PETER GURALNICK | NICK TOSCHES | JERRY WEXLER | WENDY BRENNER | MARTY STUART | ROSANNE CASH | JOE SACCO | ROBERT PALMER (THE WRITER) | R.

THANK YOU! *********** *********** /\___/\ =•ᆺ•= “We believe it’s good business to be good to our customers.” *********** FLAPPINCAT’s HOUSE RULES *********** 1. GENERAL TREATMENT. We enjoy treating FLAPPINCAT customers with honesty & respect & warmth because that’s how we like to be treated when we buy things on eBay. 2. GENERAL ATTITUDE. We are grateful you choose to trust us with your business. We aim for that gratitude to permeate every part of how we engage with you. 3. OUR DESCRIPTIONS. We describe every item we sell as clearly and accurately as we can. When it comes to describing condition, we tend toward being conservative. 4. PACKING & SHIPPING. We know from experience that items, when not thoughtfully packed, can be damaged during shipment. To avoid that real danger, FLAPPINCAT wraps & cushions your purchase(s) mindfully—and sometimes zealously—in a sturdy package. WARNING: In our zeal, we sometimes over-tape containers and you may need a penknife to unseal our shipments. NOTE: Though we often recycle shipping materials, we do NOT stint on protection. 5. OUR PRICES. We try to offer the lowest prices on eBay for items we sell. Even our most expensive offerings tend to be lower than what others are asking. “You could look it up!” —to quote baseball immortal JACK KEEFE. SUMMARY: We know you have many buying options on eBay. FLAPPINCAT tries to be distinctive by being accurate, mindful, and friendly. *********** How We GRADECONDITION *********** DETAILS. The condition of every item we sell will be described in detail. FLAWS. All discernible flaws will be noted, if not emphasized. Of course, the grading of condition can be subjective. And since no grader is perfect, it is possible that we may at times miss a flaw. It is also possible that we may miss some perfections! Should we make a mistake, you will find FLAPPINCAT eager to fix things with you. Just send us a note and we’ll get on it. GRADING SYSTEM. For books and magazines (and even other items), we use these terms (in order of desirability): VERY FINE or LIKE NEW FINE (or EXCELLENT) NEAR FINE (or NF) VERY GOOD PLUS (or VG+) VERY GOOD (or VG) GOOD FAIR ACCEPTABLE POOR “POOR.” Except in rare cases, for rare items, we tend to avoid selling items that are in utterly “POOR” condition. It is more likely that on a rare item, only one part of an item (out of numerous parts) will be described as “POOR.” RETURNS. We accept that you may wish to return a purchase because you genuinely think we haven’t described and graded its condition properly. We accept that we our* imperfect. We also accept that people can see things differently—and still be civil! (*Get it?) POP QUIZ. Please feel free to ask questions at any time about condition (or anything else, except math). EXTRA VISUALS. Although we include multiple photographs in our listings, we usually have others we could share with you. (These extra photos also help to establish a paper-trial in the rare case that an item is damaged en route to you.) *********** SHIPPING *********** Every item is individually priced for postage. That price can be found in the listing, not here. UNITED STATES: In the USA, we ship books via MEDIA MAIL. Magazines are generally shipped PRIORITY MAIL; the Post Office does not permit magazines which carry advertising to be shipped MEDIA MAIL. INTERNATIONAL DESTINATIONS: To those international countries to which we ship (please see list), the cost of postage is calculated by eBay and individually listed with each item. EXPEDITED SHIPPING: In the United States, EXPEDITED SHIPPING is available if you request, and pay, for it BEFORE we ship your item. *********** HOW TO PAY *********** PAYMENT: As we ship promptly, we ask that you please pay promptly—via PAYPAL. With auctions, payments should be made before 3 days (72 hours) from the time an auction for an item closes. After 4 days—and independent of us!—eBay automatically begins a process for unpaid action. NEED MORE TIME? If you need more time to pay, PLEASE just contact us in advance of the deadline. We understand how life happens, so we don’t mind being reasonable. Thank you! *********** LASTLY *********** What more can we say? Haven’t we said enough? Well…we can always repeat ourselves. In summary: FLAPPINCAT is genuinely grateful for your patronage and we aim to express that gratitude in every way we can. Thanks for trusting FLAPPINCAT! *********** P.S.
