"Lightnin'" - The Blues of Lightnin' Hopkins. Original Prestige Bluesville BVLP-1019.  Mono. 

Jacket - No seam splits.  Front cover is glossy, no rips, suitable for framing.  Back cover has some light aging, but is overall in great condition.

Vinyl - I would grade this VG or VG-.  It has several marks, a few of them substantial.  I played both sides of this LP today (test system is a stock Pioneer Pl-530 with Grado Black cartridge), and it did not skip.  There was background noise, in some places more evident than most, but nothing that made this LP unlistenable.  There is a light bowl warp, evenly doming on side B, but it was not apparent during listening, no record clamp was used.

This is truly a fantastic recording, one of the best blues LP's ever, and in great listening condition.  If you are unsatisfied when you receive it, send it back in the same condition as it left, and I will give you a full refund.

Ships well-packaged and insured within 24 hours of payment received.

UPDATE - PLEASE READ

In the description above, I had said that there were no seam splits on this jacket.  However, there is a 1 and 1/2" split right in the middle of the top edge of the jacket.  It's evident in the photograph.  Not really sure how I missed this, as its pretty obvious, but I didn't want there to be any confusion.  Record will ship outside the jacket, to prevent further splitting.
