Incredible array of Alan Lomax's field recordings from the 40s, 50s, and 60s available for free exploration here:
Lomax archive
What's there? Oral history from blues greats, Mississippi prison work songs, folk songs from England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales, Morocco, Spain, Italy, Romania, the Soviet Union... some 17,000 recordings.
I know where I'm going to be spending hours and hours of time.
Warning: sometimes tough to get access - I think they are pretty slammed with traffic since releasing this stuff.
