***************************************************DETAILS ABOUT ITEM**********************************************
THIS IS AN ORIGINAL 1970 PRESS OF VOL. 2 OF ROBERT JOHNSON.  A MONO ISSUE, SO THESE AMAZING TRANSFERS ARE NOT RECHANNELED,  THIS IS THE HONEST AND BEST SOUND. TRUE TO THE 78 RPMS. THE STEREO VERSION OF THESE RECORDINGS ARE NO GOOD IN MY EVALUATION.  THIS COPY IS IN ORIGINAL FULL SHRINK WRAP (NOT SEALED). A TOP CONDITION COPY.  THIS CLASSIC SET IS OF 16 MUST HAVE BLUES SIDES, FROM THE LEDGENDARY 1936-37 RECORDING SESSIONS.  AS YOU KNOW ROBERT AS A YOUNG MAN WATCHED CHARLIE PATTON AND SON HOUSE AND DREAMED TO PLAY LIKE THEM,  A FEW MONTHS IN EXILE AND A MEETING WITH THE DEVIL AT THE CROSS ROADS PRODUCED ONE OF THE GREATEST BLUESMEN EVER.  THESE RECORDING MADE NEARLY A DECADE AFTER THE MAJORITY OF TOP RATE BLUES RECORDINGS STAND AS SOME OF THE MOST IMPORTANT AND THE LATEST 78 RPM RECORDINGS OF TRUE COUNTRY BLUES.  THESE ARE THE COUNTRY BLUES, TAKING THE EMOTIONAL POWER OF PATTON AND PUTTING A SLIGHT POLISH THAT NEVER TIPS TO COMMERCIAL INTERESTS BUT DOES GIVE A NOD TO THE STREAMLINE RYTHEM THAT BLUES ROCK USED AS A BASIC. PROBABLY FOR THIS REASON HE IS NOTED BY MANY AS THE SINGLE BIGGEST INFLUENCE ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF ROCK AND ROLL. HIS STYLE HAS ROOTS AND EMOTIONAL DEPTH.  WE ARE TRUELY LUCKY THE RECORDINGS ON THIS LP WERE CAPTURED IN THE 1930'S BEFORE HIS DEATH AT 27 YEARS OLD (PROBABLY POISONED BY A JEALOUS LOVER BUT THE STORYS OF HIS DEATH ABOUND).  TO PUT IT PLIAN AND SIMPLE THESE RECORDING ARE CERTAINLY ARE PROFOUND AND HISTORIC BEYOUND MEASURE.
