Description
"Within a form that is less remarkable for melodic than rhythmic sophistication, Big Joe Williams ranks among the three or four most rhythmically inventive bluesmen. His music is almost a microcosm of 1930s Mississippi blues-playing and demonstrates how freely guitarists of that period borrowed (and altered) each other's riffs without playing each other's songs as such." - from the liner notes.
This copy is in as good of condition as though it had just come out of the shrink wrap. You'll note an unusual "defect" on the side one record label - a tiny section is missing (at 6 o'clock). The jacket and vinyl are for all intents and purposes pristine. Minor manufacturing wrinkles at left edge of front of jacket are present and minor dents on bottom edge but corners are near perfect.
