Description
This is the 1st mono press of this album. The previous owner actually had it in a picture frame for the last 50 yeare so the sleeve in remarkable shape.
Sleeve- VG+ (See old piece of tape on back cover)
Record- VG+ (On the weaker end of VG+/Strong End of VG, no scratches but most 70 year old lo-fi blues will have some background noise. Theres a kind of low end static tick thru part of "No Shoes", but then the rest sounds great.
Please done hesitate to make offers.
Every record being listed over the next 4-6 months comes from the estate of 1 man. He was an engineer for a small folk label in Nashville during the early 60s. He then worked at a folk/country Nashville radio station from approximately 1965-1975. The collection was kept in a smoke free air conditioned home his entire life.
I acquired his entire personal collection from his estate. There are between 10 and 12 thousand records and hundreds of reel to reel tapes he recorded for himself I hope to be able to list the vast majority over the next half a year. He particularly liked folk music, blues, country (everything from outlaw to roy acuff), classic rock and some jazz, I recommend checking back periodically as I work 2 jobs and there may be stretches of time between new listings.
