Description

Prestige Bluesville 1041, “Tired of Bein’ Mistreated” with Henry Townsend, vocals, guitar and piano; Tommy Bankhead, guitar; from 1962. Original heavy DG vinyl plays at a beautiful NM with virtually no background sound. The non-laminated jacket (as originally issued) is practically like new and in the original shrink wrap, except for some rubwear along the right side where the shrink wrap has shrunk from the jacket edge (see scan). This album is one of the best in the catalog. Songs are “Cairo”, “Tired of Bein’ Mistreated”, “Rocks Have Been My Pillow”, “The Train Is Coming”, “She Just Walked Away”, “I Asked Her If She Loved Me”, “I Got Tired”, “My Home Ain’t Here”, “All My Money Gone”, “She Drove Me to Drinking”, and “My Baby Have Come Back”. This is one of a set of original Bluesville LPs from several collections brought together for sale this week on eBay. Most are original DG copies in remarkable condition, and many are in the original shrink wrap. Shipping is $4.00 media mail, $8.00 priority mail within the continental U.S.; $16.00 regular airmail to the U.K., Europe, Japan, Korea, Australia, and New Zealand. Additional LPs in a single package are $1.00 additional within U.S. and Canada, $2.00 elsewhere. For overseas shipments, registered mail is strongly recommended at $11.75 extra. Many old records are practically antiques and should be treated that way. This LP will be packaged with the record inside an inner sleeve but outside the jacket; both are placed inside a sealed outer sleeve and shipped inside a special oversized handcrafted mailer with padding on all sides. It is designed thick enough not to be bent in transit and strong enough to withstand a drop from a second-story window. More than two LPs together may be mailed inside a heavy Bags Unlimited pizza-style box. Your LP should arrive in the same condition as on the day it was shipped. All used LPs are play-graded on a VPI turntable with Audioquest tonearm and Grado cartridge.
