Muddy's "unplugged" album was cut in September of 1963 and still sounds fresh and vital today. It was Muddy simply returning to his original style on a plain acoustic guitar in a well-tuned room with Willie Dixon on string bass, Clifton James on drums, and Buddy Guy on second acoustic guitar. The nine tracks are divvied up between full rhythm section treatments with Buddy and Muddy as a duo and the final track, "Feel Like Going Home," which Waters approaches solo. Folk Singer offers both sides of Muddy from the early '60s.

(EXCERPT FROM AN ONLINE REVIEW BY THE LATE, GREAT CUB KODA, ALL MUSIC GUIDE  /ALLMUSIC.COM/)

Simply one of the top-10 Greatest Blues Albums ever recorded. Period (We would even go as far as saying one of the top-5); right up there with Howlin Wolf’s “Rockin Chair” album; Lightnin’ Hopkins’ “Lightnin’ and the Blues”, Sonny Boy Williamson’s “Down and Out Blues”, Jimmy Reed’s “Rockin’ with Reed”, Little Walter’s “Best of”, Elmore James’ “The sky is crying”, Albert King’s “Born Under the Bad Sign”, BB King’s “Live at the Regal” or Lonnie Johnson’s “Ballads and Blues” or Freddie King’s “Hideaway”. Nectar and ambrosia for blues ears.

·      CONDITION:

·      THE RECORD

(IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded!; we  grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight)

(a)         WE GRADE THE VINYL AS STRONG NEAR MINT. The original luster is very much intact, and the vinyl shines and sparkles almost like new.

(b)         The album comes with the original MFSL cardboard inner sleeve

(c)         The record is STILL in its original inner, hi-grade MFSL PVC inner sleeve

(d)         The record is pressed on a beautiful, high-quality, virgin-grade vinyl, which is usually used for audiophile, extended-dynamic-range, half-speed mastered and connoisseur pressings.

(e)         In addition, the record is pressed on a SUPER-THICK , inflexible vinyl.

(f)          Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording!!!

THE COVER IS NEAR MINT !

The following flaws or imperfections are noted on the cover:

We offer three postage rates for domestic orders: USPS Media Mail, USPS Priority Mail and USPS Express Mail and three rates for international shipments:  USPS First Class, USPS Priority International Mail, and USPS Express International Mail (in a small number of cases, we will, at our discretion and for purely technical reasons, substitute First Class Mail with eBay's Global Shipping, which is fundamentally the same service at about the same cost). INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMERS PLEASE NOTE: WE RECOMMEND (BUT DO NOT INSIST) that you select USPS International Priority Mail when making a payment.

Doing otherwise will result in multiple shipments to the same customer and forfeiture of multiple shipping charges already paid.

We can only make reasonable inference on the record's playing condition based on its visual appearance. (D) This seller will NOT cancel erroneous, frivolous and prank bids. The bidders can do so on their own, by visiting eBay's Site Map, then clicking on Bid Retractions link. (E) This seller does not specifically grade or describe certain items, such as: shrink (cellophane) wrap and accompanying extras (inserts, booklets, etc.); however, the presence of these items WILL be noted and accompanied by the gallery photo(s). (F) Please do not submit any bids on our items if you have insufficient user history.
