Vinyl, sleeve and insert are in like new condition. I purchased this new and played it no more than a couple of times. It sounds fantastic. Original plastic sleeve with both hype stickers is included. This will be shipped in a proper vinyl mailer and both records will be shipped outside of the sleeve to avoid any seam splits.
There are a handful of landmark albums in any genre. In the blues, one of them is Muddy Waters' Folk Singer. Originally released in 1964, Folk Singer was the only acoustic album Waters ever recorded, thus becoming the first and perhaps best blues concept album ever. Muddy of course started out playing acoustic blues in the Delta, and he's clearly very comfortable in this return to his roots, which was designed to appeal to the mid-1960s surge of interest in folk music.
Muddy's supporting cast includes a very young Buddy Guy on guitar, Willie Dixon at the upright bass and Clifton James on drums.
This recording has enormous presence with ample room for Muddy's booming voice to resonate.
