USED VINYL RECORD. PART OF A COLLECTION NOW UP FOR SALE.

THE THREE MEN FEATURED ON THIS ALBUM REFLECT QUITE DIFFERENT ASPECTS OF BLUES PIANO. BLIND DONALD DAWSON, WITH A BARE MINIMUM OF TECHNICAL SKILL MANAGES TO RETAIN HIS RURAL IDENTITY WITH A FEEL FOR HIS MUSIC, SO SIMPLY EXPRESSED. FATS JEFFERSON, LONG USED TO THE NOISY RAUCOUS BARS AROUND NEW YORK CITY, HAS POPULAR OVERTONES AND A MORE STYLISED VOCAL DELIVERY. ELROY HART, ALTHOUGH HAVING LEARNED MUCH OF HIS TRADE FROM RECORD, INJECTS ENOUGH OF HIS OWN STYLE, OR AT LEAST A STYLE ACQUIRED FROM HIS NORTH FLORIDA BIRTHPLACE, TO OFFER A VERY PERSONAL APPROACH IN A FULL-BODIED, TWO-FISTED PIANO ATTACK. ALL TRACKS WERE RECORDED IN 1973 IN UP-STATE NEW YORK BY FAT MOUTH PRODUCTIONS UNDER THE DIRECTION OF KIP LORNELL IN ORDER TO DOCUMENT THESE VALUABLE SURVIVALS OF OLDER, MORE RURAL BLUES STYLES IN URBAN SETTINGS. A GREAT LITTLE COLLECTABLE FOR THE HARD-CORE BLUES AFICIONADO WHO IS LOOKING FOR SOMETHING A LITTLE DIFFERENT.

THE SLEEVE IS MOSTLY IN GOOD CONDITION WITH ONLY MINOR WEAR INCLUDING MINOR RING-WEAR AND SOME MINOR SOILING ON THE REAR. THERE IS, HOWEVER, A STRIP OF TAPE ACROSS THE TOP OF THE SLEEVE ALTHOUGH THERE DOESN'T APPEAR TO BE A TEAR EVIDENT. IT APPEARS THAT THE TOP SEAM HAD COME ADRIFT AND INSTEAD OF USING SOME GLUE USED TAPE INSTEAD. THE RECORD IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION BORDERING ON MINT CONDITION.
