Analogue Productions Prestige Blues

Limited Edition 0154

45 RPM 2LP 200g STEREO

RARE and Out of Print!

Mastering by Kevin Gray and Steve Hoffman

Rare and Out of Print.  The regular pressing is hard to find.  This one is impossible!

Near Mint/Near Mint

Graded Cover/Record

Vinyl is super clean perfect Near Mint with a couple of slight scuffs from taking the record out of the sleeve, very slight hairlines and played only by me once!   I played it last night and this sounds absolutely fantastic. Labels are clean brand new.  Cover is super clean and still looks brand new with super nice gloss and each LP and the jacket have been stored in a plastic sleeve.  Original plastic lined paper inner sleeve is in excellent shape.

Sound Quality: Kevin Gray and Steve Hoffman's mastering is the best sounding! The bass and overall sonics on this mastering is FABULOUS!  This would be a great demonstration record for your friends at your party!

"For music once treated so cavalierly by the major labels, the blues yielded numerous magnificent recordings, light years away from the primitive sonic quality of, say, Robert Johnson's pre-WWII sessions. In a similar vein to Muddy Waters' oft-reissued Folk Singer is this superlative acoustic session from rural blues legend Lightnin' Hopkins, from late 1960. Playing guitar and backed by just bass and drums, he delivered ten tracks of which at least half are staples of the genre, timed just as the folk revival was giving the blues a much-needed boost. 'Automobile Blues,' 'Mean Old Frisco,' 'The Walkin' Blues,' — for those who crave unvarnished  authenticity, but with in-the-room presence, this is a tonic." — Sound Quality: 90% - Ken Kessler, Album Choice Hi Fi News, July 2018

“Recorded for Prestige's Bluesville subsidiary in 1960, Lightnin' is among the rewarding acoustic dates Lightnin' Hopkins delivered in the early '60s. The session has an informal, relaxed quality, and this approach serves a 48-year-old Hopkins impressively well on both originals like ‘Thinkin' 'Bout an Old Friend’ and the familiar ‘Katie Mae’ and enjoyable interpretations of Sonny Terry & Brownie McGhee's ‘Back to New Orleans’ and Arthur ‘Big Boy’ Crudup's ‘Mean Old Frisco.’ Hopkins' only accompaniment consists of bassist Leonard Gaskin and drummer Belton Evans, both of whom play in an understated fashion and do their part to make this intimate setting successful. From the remorseful ‘Come Back Baby’ to more lighthearted, fun numbers like ‘You Better Watch Yourself’ and ‘Automobile Blues,’ Lightnin' is a lot like being in a small club with Hopkins as he shares his experiences, insights and humor with you.” — All Music Guide

Condition: I grade according to Goldmine standards. That means a VG+ vinyl will be just that, an LP that is in beautiful condtion! I am very picky when it comes to grading and grade to Goldmine standards. I absolutely hate it when dealers ameliorate the condition of the vinyl!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Especially when I am the buyer!! All my Lp's have been stored in my house upright on a shelf in an air conditioned and dry environment, meaning no warping, staining or mildew! 

Shipping: Shipping will be via USPS Media Mail $8 and will be mailed in a sturdy LP mailer.
