How many times do you find Otis Rush, Mike Bloomfield and Duane Allman in action , on the same album (in a variety of roles and functions). Well, if you answered: NEVER - you were close. This legendary electric blues album is for all practical purposes the ONLY album Otis Rush recorded  in the first ten years of his career - and it is the only place where RUSH-ALLMAN-BLOOMFIELD guitar "triumvirate" can be found in action, although not on all songs, and not at the same time. The backup band (the entire Muscle Shoals studio band) leaves absolutely nothing to be desired. . The rhythm section positively rocks and rocks (and then rolls and rolls) BIG time . And, just when you think it’s over, the band shakes, rattles and rolls some more.  And more.  And then some.

You will find songwriting credits by Paul Butterfield, Chuck Willis, Nick Gravenites (of Electric Flag and Janis Joplin's Kozmic Blues Band) and many others. If you are a serious bluesman, you will have "I’ve-died-and-gone-to-heaven" feeling (figuratively speaking)  after only a few chords. Be forewarned: these blues are serious, masculine ones - this stuff is not for the faint of heart. These are the blues with the big, bad blooooz attitude: in other words, a real ass-kicking blues. Track listing: Me - Working man - You're killing my love - Feel so bad - Gambler's blues - Baby I love you - My old lady - Reap what you sow - It takes time - Can't wait no longer.

·       CONDITION:

·       RECORD

 (IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded!; we  grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight)

(a)          WE GRADE THE VINYL AS  VERY GOOD+ . CAUTION: The vinyl is NOT MINT or NEAR MINT, but is nevertheless in a very nice and clean condition. There are some surface marks and abrasions, mostly light and superficial, although some may be longer than 1.1/4 inches (1 inch = 2.5 centimeters)

(b)          The record is pressed on a beautiful, thick, inflexible vinyl, which was usually used for the first or very early pressings. Usually, the sound on such thick vinyl pressings is full-bodied, vivid, and even dramatic. Do not expect to obtain such a majestic analog sound from a digital recording!

(c)           Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording!!!

·       COVER

THE COVER IS ABOUT VERY GOOD+(+)

The following flaws or imperfections are noted on the cover:

-        Cover has some light ring wear (nothing significant); On the scale from 1 to 10 (1 being the least, and  10 being the most severe), we assess the severity of ring wear as 4

-        Back cover has circular tarnish (grayish, dust-covered sections, which closely follow the contour of the record),  probably caused by friction or by rubbing against other covers during the storage. The tarnish is similar in appearance to a common ring wear, but, UNLIKE ring wear, these grayish areas may be possible to clean up with a minor effort and with a right cleansing solution.

-        Cover shows some light yellowing on back side, apparently from aging.

-        Cover has a small cutout saw-mark (an indent about 3-5 mm long ) on one of its seams.

-        Cover has a visible "wrinkle"(crease)  in one of the corners.

-        Cover has two corners slightly worn / frayed / bent (just a beginning of the split seam)

-        Cover has some fraying/wear along the spine

NO OTHER IMPERFECTIONS ON THE COVER:

-        No cut-out (drill) holes.

-        No cut-out corners

-        No writing

-        No stamps

-        No peel-off marks

-        No stains

-        No mold or mildew spots

-        No stickers or labels

-        No water damage

-        No razor marks, scratches, pressure marks, lines, streaks, or  cuts.
