Howlin' Wolf (Chester Burnett) "Chicago Golden Years" Chess 427016 1976
France
Record 1 Side A - Smokestack Lightnin": Down In The Bottom: No Place To Go: Moanin' At Midnight: Forty-Four: My Country Sugar Mama Side B - Spoonful: The Red Rooster: Moanin' For My Baby: I Asked For Water: How Many More Years: Louise Record 2 Side A - Killing Floor: Evil (Is Goin' On): Back Door Man: Sitting On Top Of The World: Tail Dragger: Tell Me Side B - Wang-Dang Doodle: Who's Been Talkin': Built For Comfort: Ooh Baby, Hold Me: Baby, How Long: Three Hundred Pounds Of Joy
Disc condition - Excellent plus, some light surface marks & one obvious (although light) scratch.  I have played the first 2 tracks of each side & both records play very well.  The level of background crackle varies from none at all to barely audible, to a definite audible crackle on the side that has the scratch (although these tracks also played well & the crackle was not overwhelming).   Inner sleeve - Paper, 2 or 3 creases, otherwise as new. Cover (in plastic sleeve) - Gatefold (with B&W photos & notes by Peter Guralnick from "Rolling Stone" magazine), near mint, no splits. tears, scratches or creases, corners & edges as new, no rim rubbing/marking on front cover, very minor rim mark on back cover, plastic cover a bit creased & yellowed with age.   
This record is part of a collection of mainly Blues, Jazz & Soul genre records inherited from a relative.  The records were all purchased in Australia approx. 25 to 30 years ago prior to this relative leaving to live overseas.  The records have been in storage, untouched & unplayed, in Australia, during that time.  As far as I know, the records were purchased as new releases or good condition 2nd hand recordings & only played in order to transfer them to tape.
I am working my way alphabetically through the collection of approximately 300 records & will be listing them all over the coming months.  If you think this collection may hold an artist that you are interested in I will be happy to answer any queries.  I am unable to play all the records but will visually grade them listing any faults that are apparent.  
Successful bidder - Payment must be received within 5 days from end of auction or record will be relisted for sale. I will ship in padded postal envelope with extra bubble wrap around record & will not be responsible for damage or loss in the post.  I will refund, minus shipping cost, if you believe the item is not as described.  I will be happy to combine postage (please email for costs) if you are purchasing more than one item & will hold any item you have won until any future auction on which you are bidding finishes.  Personal pick-up can be arranged.
