Vintage JOHN LEE HOOKER 78 rpm vinyl record featuring "Half A Stranger"  and "Shake, Holler and Run"
On the Modern Records Hollywood label, #948 with vintage paper sleeve.  See photos from both sides, which are part of the description.

Record shows heavy wear and scratches.  Does have a noticeable warp when revolving on turntable, but plays without issue on my Numark (which is an average player, not a high-end unit).  It simply causes the tonearm to ride up a bit in that spot, but both sides track ok on my gear.  If you have a super-sensitive tonearm, it might be different.  Obviously, if you have a victrola with steel needle (as I also have), it plays fine there as well.  Priced accordingly.
