JOHNNY JENKINS "TON-TON MACOUTE"
WLP PROMO SOUL LP!
Capricorn SD 33-331
What a fine bowl of Southern gumbo this Johnny Jenkins disc is. Aided and abetted by the likes of Duane Allman and the Allman Brothers Band (everyone except Dickey Betts and Gregg Allman appear throughout), Jenkins cooks on such cuts as "Down Along the Cove" from the pen of Bob Dylan, and Muddy Waters' "Rollin' Stone." But it is Dr. John's "I Walk On Guilded Splinters" which shines here and is the one which folks will recognize as the basis for Beck's hit "Loser." On the slippery "Blind Bats & Swamp Rats" you can almost feel the heat and humidity rolling out of the bayou. Great Southern funk n' roll for the discerning listener.--James Chrispell
Why you want it :
1. This album by JOHNNY JENKINS has been sampled often, most notably by Beck for his hit "Loser".
2. The Funky Blues-R&B LP was originally planned as a Duane Allman solo project, but Duane got sidetracked and it became Johnny's show. Duane's stinging bottle-neck guitar licks can be heard on several of the tracks.
3. Jenkins and his group, The Pinetoppers were the back-up band for Otis Redding on his first tour of the South in 1960.
4. Includes a great version of Bob Dylan's "Down Along The Cove"!
VERY RARE WHITE LABEL PROMO LP! Front and back covers have a music library stamp on them. The back cover also has some masking tape as well as some pen writing. Vinyl is VG+ except for side 2 which has a substantial pressure mark; the mark covers several tracks and can be felt by hand but is not audible.

PLEASE NOTE: We have set our shipping prices to cover costs on an average basis. You may be charged slightly more - or less - than the actual cost of postage; Priority postage varies according to destination, records and jackets vary in weight, all of which makes it impossible to set an exact "correct" price for all customers, especially internationally. We ship all LP's in new (unused) custom LP mailers. We pack records with filler pads, placing the disc in an inner sleeve outside the cover to prevent seam splitting in transit. Part of our postage fee covers the cost of the mailer and pads (which currently costs us up to a dollar per).

RECORD GRADING POLICY
MINT = like new or near new with only one or two small insignificant defects, a 9 or better on a 1-10 scale
EXCELLENT = Would be Near Mint, except for a couple of light hairlines or scuffs, which do not affect play
VG++ = still a very nice record with all or nearly all of its original gloss but may have a few more light, surface marks, hairlines, needle tracks or the like which should not materially effect play
VG+ = a nice, but used record that may have a series of light scuffs or scratches. It probably plays with a few pops, but has no serious problems.
VG = a well-used record that still should sound OK when played, but may have moderate surface noise, pops, etc.
VG- = a very well-worn record that plays through without skipping, but will do until a better copy comes along.
Good = not actually good at all but probably will play through but with much in the way of surface noise, pops, crackles, etc. Still, will have no cracks, chips or the like
Fair = you’re getting this record just to own but not to play
Poor = the sky’s the limit, generally I will discard a record this bad (and sell the cover, jacket or sleeve alone) unless the label holds some particular interest
