Description

Originally published in 1966, THIS IS THE LATE-70s/EARLY-80s US REPRESSING on ARHOOLIE "Red&Black" label [50cents catalog]. The single cover is still in shrink and in VG+ condition, normal wear and without any major deterioration, BUT discolouration/wear on right corners/right edge (where missing shrink), surface sticker mark on rear (top left corner), left spine is fully readable, for details see photos (with and without flashlight). The vinyl is in EX condition (some mild crackles at the start on both sides, due to pressing) and plays wonderfully.

LIGHTNING HOPKINS

Sam Hopkins was a Texas country bluesman of the highest caliber whose career began in the 1920s and stretched all the way into the 1980s. Along the way, Hopkins watched the genre change remarkably, but he never appreciably altered his mournful Lone Star sound, which translated onto both acoustic and electric guitar. Hopkins' nimble dexterity made intricate boogie riffs seem easy, and his fascinating penchant for improvising lyrics to fit whatever situation might arise made him a beloved blues troubadour.
