What are your favorite Alan Lomax field recordings?

I've got Popular Songbook and The Spanish Recordings: Aragon and Valencia.
I'd like to get Cajun and Creole Music, Vol. 2: 1934/1937 and his book Folk Song Style and Culture.
The Italian stuff also looks interesting

Which ones have you got, and what would you recommend?

My stupid posts have been deleted because those pictures are so fantastic. That bottom picture in particular has moved me.
