This legendary compilation, released on Elektra in 1966, was the first album to alert the public at large to the emergence of one Eric Clapton henceforth known as God (plus, Tom Rush, Lovin' Spoonful, Al Kooper and Paul Butterfield Blues Band, whose very first studio recordings can be found here - and which are much more bluesy and much meaner and leaner than the subsequent recordings, I should add). This is a masterful collection of early 60's white electric blues, folk and even some blue-eyed soul. This very rare anthology came out in 1965 and contains the only known recordings of Powerhouse, Clapton's very first band (Yardbirds notwithstanding). TRACK LISTING: Good Time Music - The Lovin' Spoonful --- Almost Grown - The Lovin' Spoonful --- Spoonful - Paul Butterfield Blues Band --- Off The Wall - Paul Butterfield Blues Band --- Can't Keep From Cryin' Sometimes - Al Kooper --- I Want To Know - Eric Clapton/The Powerhouse --- Crossroads - Eric Clapton/The Powerhouse --- Lovin' Cup - Paul Butterfield Blues Band --- Good Morning Little School Girl - Paul Butterfield Blues Band --- Stepping Out - Eric Clapton/The Powerhouse --- I'm In Love Again - Tom Rush --- Don't Bank On It Baby - The Lovin' Spoonful --- Searchin' - The Lovin' Spoonful --- One More Mile - Paul Butterfield Blues Band.  A must for any serious ELEKTRA or Eric Clapton collector.  Finding a still sealed original MONO copy?!?! Forget it – not even a HOPE!!! This may be the last one you will ever see.

·                               CONDITION:

·                               RECORD

 (IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded!; we  grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight)

(a)          THE ALBUM IS STILL FACTORY SEALED AND IS BELIEVED TO BE PERFECTLY MINT. Please note: sealed items are assumed to be mint and are sold as-is, as we have no way of inspecting them. For our policy on still sealed records ►click here (PLEASE READ BEFORE PLACING A BID).

(b)          The album is believed to come with the original booklet still intact

(c)           The album is believed to come with its original Elektra ’66 catalog/brochure intact

(d)          The record comes in the original stock inner sleeve.

(e)           The record is pressed on a beautiful, thick, inflexible vinyl, which was usually used for the first or very early pressings. Usually, the sound on such thick vinyl pressings is full-bodied, vivid, and even dramatic. Do not expect to obtain such a majestic analog sound from a digital recording!

(f)            Mono pressing of this title is much rarer, and by far more  preferable to its stereo counterpart. We think that the mix is more natural, humane, "organic" and that the mixes are somewhat different than on the stereo version. We estimate that stereo copies of this album outnumber mono pressings by a ratio of at least 5:1.

(g)          Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording!!!

·                               THE COVER

COVER IS STRONG NEAR MINT, STILL SEALED AND COVERED IN ITS ORIGINAL ►SHRINK WRAP

The following flaws or imperfections are noted on the cover:

-         Cover shows JUST A HINT of yellowing on both sides, apparently from aging.

NO OTHER VISIBLE FLAWS OR IMPERFECTIONS ON THE  COVER
