If you're not familiar with this Artist or this release, here's some additional information: "Simply my favorite Fahey record hands-down. He sometimes self-plagiarizes on later LP's so hearing certain bits here for the first time means that, in my mind, they belong to this album. I like the 1963 version best (It was re-recorded and re-issues in 1967) - such a dream-like, mysterious atmosphere. Memorable melodies, great compositions that utilize familiar blues tropes but are deceptively progressive and complex in construction. There's also some pretty psychedelic production and compositional flourishes, which is pretty crazy considering the date and genre. You will have to pry this album from my corpse's withered fingers".

The Vinyl is Near Mint (9-9.5 of 10) in condition. With Original Plain Paper Inner Sleeve. The cover is very nice (Alternate Cover Art??). The only issue to report: some very minor corner softening. Nothing serious on this great LP - Good Luck finding another copy of this LP in this condition!!.
