Description

PLEASE SEE ALL PHOTOS BELOW. SHIPPING AMOUNT INCLUDES INSURANCE. WILL ONLY SHIP TO AN ADDRESS IN THE DOMESTIC UNITED STATES. Record will ship secured between two 78's and a cardboard square on each side. This will be bubble wrapped and placed in a larger box along with additional insulating crumpled newspaper.

NOTE: SEARCH FOR THIS 78 ON "YOUTUBE" TO HEAR AN EXAMPLE (BUT NOT MY COPY) OF THE RECORDING. I HAVE A LOW-END ION USB TURNTABLE WHICH WOULD NOT PRODUCE A HIGH QUALITY SAMPLE OF MY COPY.

Artist Blind Willie Johnson Title "I Know His Blood Can Make Me Whole" / "Jesus Make Up My Dying Bed" Label Columbia Catalog Number 14276-D Matrix Numbers W145316 6 1-A-1 D / W145317 4 2-A-1 D1 Year 1927 Condition SEE ALL PHOTOS BELOW. Strong E+ condition (E+ = a virtually perfect copy with only minor signs of having been played).  Test played once each side by me.  Evidence of some extremely small amount of play of one side (what MAY be some minor spindle wear and 3 or 4 VERY small and VERY light scratches preceeding the track). Two faint parallel lines (not cracks) running from edge to center hole (toward a point just below the "a" in Columbia) under surface of the "I Know His Blood Can Make Me Whole" side.  Lines are from original manufacturing process and do not affect play nor compromise the integrity of the record. Artist Bio Blind Willie Johnson (January 25, 1897 – September 18, 1945) was an American gospel blues singer-guitarist and evangelist. His landmark recordings completed between 1927 and 1930—thirty songs in total—display a combination of powerful "chest voice" singing, slide guitar skills, and originality that has influenced later generations of musicians. Comments VERY SCARCE IN THIS  CONDITION. Acquired as part of a collection of folk/blues/jazz records in upstate NY. "Jesus Make Up My Dying Bed" covered by Bob Dylan, Led Zeppelin and others.

Buyer pays shipping (varies based on address of winning bidder and amount of insurance). NY residents add 8% sales tax. Payment required within 3 days of end of auction.
