Ooh, love stuff like this. Needless to say, bookmarked.
Sound quality is a little poor, no noise reduction at all (worth checking out releases by ASV/Living Era for some sensitive noise reduced re-recordings of this kind of stuff).
Having a quick search, looks like it's biased towards 1940+ (I'm into 1900-40 really), but there's some of my favourites: Ruth Etting, Billie Holladay, Ethel Waters
But missing my very favourites: Annette Hanshaw, Elsie Carlisle
Incidently, if this gives you a taste for pre-rock-n-roll type music, check out The 1920s Radio Network which plays all sorts of music from wax cylinder onwards, including ragtime, jazz, blue, swing, bluegrass, etc.
