ATTENTION 1960s BLUES & FOLK LP COLLECTORS!HERE IS ONE OF THE RAREST LPs TO BE ISSUED ON THE FONTANA LABEL IN 1964 BY DOC WATSON.      NO ACTUAL TITLE CONTAINING 13 TRACKS.        THIS ALBUM RECORDED IN THE USA BY VANGUARD BUT BRITISH PRESSINGS AS WITH THIS ON FONTANA WERE FAR SUPERIOR QUALITY WITH VERY THICK VINYL AND THIS ONE HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED-A TRUE ULTIMATE FINAL UPGRADER EXAMPLE WHICH IS SIMPLY STUNNING WITH THAT"JUST PRESSED"LOOK! PHILIPS PRESSED FONTANA TFL 6045 WITH THE ROUGH TEXTURED LABELS,THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE 1L/2L MATRIXES AS WELL AS BEING HOUSED IN THE ORIGINAL AND CORRECT POLYLINED BRITISH AND OTHER PATENTS PENDING INNER SLEEVE. THIS HIGHLY SOUGHT AFTER LP HAD VERY LITTLE ATTENTION OR SALES AND WAS PROBABLY DELETED WITHIN A FEW MONTHS OF ISSUE. HARDLY ANY SURVIVE ESPECIALLY LIKE THIS OUTSTANDING COPY WHICH HAS CLEARLY ONLY HAD A COUPLE OF PLAYS IN 49 YEARS! WOW! WHAT A FANTASTIC OPPORTUNITY TO BID FOR ONE OF THE RAREST EVER LPs TO BE ISSUED ON FONTANA AND IS MUSICALLY MAGNIFICENT BLUES AND FOLK. YOU'LL TREASURE THIS FOR YEARS! NOT AN EASY ALBUM TO FIND AS BLUES/FOLK MUSIC ONLY SOLD IN SMALL QUANTITIES IN THE UK UNTIL THE BLUES BOOM OF THE LATE 1960s BY WHICH TIME THIS LP WAS LONG OUT OF PRINT!

FROM A VERY CAREFUL COLLECTOR WHO BOUGHT FROM NEW AND AS OFTEN THE CASE WITH LARGE COLLECTIONS-THE MAJORITY OF THE DISCS HAD A COUPLE OF PLAYS AT THE VERY MOST AND THEN FILED AWAY ON SHELVES AWAY FROM LIGHT AND HEAT FOR 49 YEARS! SOLID MONO MIXES!

YOU'LL PROBABLY NEVER FIND A BETTER COPY!

SO CLOSE TO MINT! A TERM I NEVER USE AS IT DOES NOT EXIST EXCEPT FOR SEALED LPs! 

Over the years I have helped to add to the collections of many QUALITY BLUES MUSIC collectors and given my experience, I am aware of the titles that are GENUINE RARE ITEMS.

Now of course for those who are"chained"to the record collector price guide books,for whom I am one of the main consultants, the prices are still a SUGGESTION and as we all know ACTUAL prices SOLD can vary.

The sellers on ebay who continually put"listed"or "list price"on everything should be aware of this!!!!     

SHARP,CLEAN LABELS!   

This is my honest grading!!!

Please see my listening policy below. 

I test on a lightweight pickup of approx 2 grammes and listen with the treble full on and no filtering or mono switch used.As both a collector and dealer,I AM VERY STRICT ON GRADING but DO CHECKOUT MY FEEDBACK FOR GRADING PROOF!!!!
