Smithsonian Folkways is a recording company, started in the twentieth century as a private label and left to the Smithsonian Institution by Moses Asch upon his death. Asch mixed both White and Black artists together, which was revolutionary at the time. Artists like Leadbelly, Woody Guthrie, Doc Watson, Cisco Huston, Lee Hays, and Pete Seeger would record there. Google the company's name and you will probably get their website, with more information than I can remember.
