Description
Superb copy of this classic piece of British blues from one of the founding fathers of the scene. Vinyl doesn't look like it has been played. This is a stereo reissue i think from around 1970 but possibly earlier as it has 1W/1W matrix which only seem to be seen on 1st pressings so it's possible it's a transitional record ie a 1st pressing which they they used with a later label. Either way it's a cracking piece of vinyl and much sought after.
