title? Lightnin' Hopkins | Green Vinyl LP | Lightnin' and the Blues |

Description:


Limited edition, includes obi. Reverse paste and coated original jacket specification. Lightnin' Hopkins is the king of the low-down and dirty blues. His 1954 Herald recordings have long been regarded as the absolute dirtiest and best of his many recordings. The album Lightnin' And The Blues, a compilation of 12 of those recordings, was originally released on LP on the same label in 1960 and has long been renowned as a rare release, and is now being reissued on dark green vinyl. The lightning bolt jacket, which has always shaken the hearts of blues fans with its sound, has been reissued in its original reversed and coated version! Lightnin' electrics with bass and drums, wild and dirty, booming and bellowing throughout! Lightnin's electric guitar, accompanied by bass and drums, is wild and dirty, and the lightning bolt on the jacket is a must for fainting in agony!
