Description

Wade Walton, "The Blues of Wade Walton." Prestige/Bluesville BV 1060; Blue Trident Label; Mono
Sleeve -- VG+. White seam wear that's shown up on the edges of the black matte cover. Please note -- these are not seam splits, just gentle edge wear. This is a beautiful copy LP -- EX/NM. Great condition

Here's one of the rarest and coolest of all the Bluesville LPs, and one that's become quite sought after recently. Copies of this have recently gone for $400/$500 on eBay and other record sites. 
This is the Trident logo pressing, which came out a year or two after the initial run. Still incredibly rare. 
Walton was a barber and local Civil Rights' leader in Mississippi, and a helluva guitar player -- his playing almost sounds like the origins of Scotty Moore. I'd put this up there with "Mr. Scrapper's Blues" by Scrapper Blackwell and the K.C. Douglas' LP as being the best of the albums on Bluesville, and I think I've heard just about every one of them.

About Me
I’ve been collecting records for 21 years and selling them for nearly that long. While I am not a professional store, I am meticulous about my grading, packaging and shipping, as this is what I expect of others. I have happy customers all over the world. All records will be removed from the sleeve prior to shipping and will be sent out USPS Media Mail. 
Shipping is $4.00 per LP and $1.00 for every additional LP. Other shipping options are available upon request.
I prefer not to ship overseas, but I am prepared to listen if buyers in other countries are interested — FOREIGN BUYERS MUST CHECK IN WITH ME BEFORE BIDDING. Please note — I will not falsify customs’ documents for foreign buyers. This is against  eBay policy and customs’ duties are the buyer’s responsibility.
I do not accept returns, but I am reasonable and will hear you out if you believe I have not represented an item accurately.
