RELEASE DESCRIPTION
RELEASE DESCRIPTION
Lightnin' Hopkins was one of the most over-recorded artists in the blues genre. The recordings here were made at a pivotal moment in his career. In 1960, at 48 years old, he was no longer a star in the black community but was becoming a folk legend. His deeply personal music not only reflected the experiences of his community but touched a universal nerve.
Chris Strachwitz, who often recorded Hopkins, has called his records "brief audio snapshots of one of the great folk poets to emerge from the African-American experience in Texas." When he died in 1982 he had recorded well over 600 "audio snapshots". From his prolific output, this Candid session ranks amongst his finest and most intimate work. Mark A Humphrey

Came exactly as described and in perfect condition, the best shipment service on vinyls I’ve ever had. Fast and accurate, I’ve had records ordered for almost a month with another store and these guys continually beat out all other stores for shipment. I just ordered again from them, highly recommend.

The album arrived well packaged, in impeccable condition. Love the service. Love this album!

Great shop, I can only recommend it.

I finally received it. It came well packaged and secure. The customer assistance was great and helpful with my queries.

honestly i was very happy to have this poster come in, and imma buy a frame for it later. the poster is really beautiful and i love it, there was a slight defect to it, no fault to the company, but the mailing service itself, but it doesnt really bother me at all since it’s barely noticeable, i am just so happy to own it!!
