Based on four years of fieldwork throughout the state, the Florida Folklife Program released the two-album, 27-track LP 'Drop on Down in Florida' in 1981, The album was intended to highlight African American music traditions for a statewide public audience, blues and sacred traditions in particular, In recent years, the Folklife Program sought the opportunity to produce an expanded reissue of the album that would include previously unissued fieldwork recordings and photos, Drawing upon extensive fieldwork materials now housed in the State Archives of Florida, the expanded reissue includes nearly 80 previously-unreleased minutes of music on 28 new tracks, plus numerous photos documenting the musicians and communities that perpetuated these traditions.
