MISSISSIPI JOHN HURT ‘THE IMMORTAL MISSISSIPI JOHN HURT’ 1968 VANGUARD VINYL LP IN LAMINATED SLEEVE
Sleeve Condition: Ex, a very nice, glossy, laminated sleeve, relatively clean back and free from writing, marking, damage or defect.
Record Condition: Ex, obviously rarely played (astonishingly for an album of such musical mastery) and plays fine throughout albeit with the occasional crackle only really noticeable in between tracks.
One of the best albums of country blues ever recorded. The fingerpicking is delicate, the vocals mellow and sweet. Many tunes that remain associated with Hurt are included here in versions that rival his legendary recordings from the late '20s. "Richland Woman Blues," "Stagolee," "The Chicken," and "Since I've Laid My Burden Down" sound as fresh as ever in these '60s versions. This album leaves little doubt as to why Hurt was so beloved after his rediscovery.
I am currently listing and will be continuing to list many other, similar release date, (early to mid-1960’s) blues on vinyl in similar Ex+ or Near Mint condition. Please check out my other eBay listings in the coming days. I will be adding to them over the next week or so.
