Description
About the album:
• John Hurt was pushing 70 when Vanguard finally put him in a studio, and he still played cleaner than half the kids half his age.
• Features Candy Man, Coffee Blues, and Make Me a Pallet on Your Floor — aka the songs that launched 1,000 awkward dorm room performances.
• This pressing comes still in its shrink, so you know it hasn’t been passed around the jam circle too many times.
Condition:
• Vinyl: clean, plays beautifully.
• Jacket: sharp, shrink intact, little shelf wear. Basically looks like it’s been sitting patiently since LBJ was in office, waiting for someone to drop the needle.
Why you need it:
Because nothing says “serious blues collector” like casually pulling out Mississippi John Hurt and then saying, “Oh, this old thing?” Plus, if you can get through Coffee Blues without a smile, check your pulse.
