Description
This performer is one of the original delta blues superstars. He performed from the late 20’s right up to the day he died in 1972. His classic composition ‘You Gotta Move’ was covered by the Rolling Stones on Sticky Fingers. His take on the classic is found on this powerful set. This artist is all about pure, unadulterated blues music, and this is a stunningly beautiful collection! This is just Mississippi Fred and his guitar, singing and playing the blues in front of an adoring audience in New York City in 1971. The album was released on Ovation Records in 1973, number OD-1. This is a reissue of the album originally released one year earlier. The vinyl is in exceptional condition with its bright original luster and just a few light surface scratches that barely impact play. With the exception of a couple of tics late on side one and right away on side two, it plays with almost no background noise. There are initials written on the side one label. The vinyl grades VG. The album cover still has its original shrink wrap though it is partially torn on the open side. It shows light ring wear and very light corner wear and edge wear. All seams are sharp, tight, and intact. There are initials written lightly near the top right corner. The cover grades VG+.

Grading Information
I always clean and then listen to every record I list on eBay. I do this to make sure I can give as accurate a description of each record as possible. I will do both a visual check and an audio check. I absolutely attempt to give as objective a grading as I can. I don’t ever want you to be disappointed in the quality of the album you receive.I use four grades in my grading: NM, VG+, VG, and G. The only exception is a sealed album which is presumed to have vinyl in mint condition. My NM grading means that the vinyl looks and plays as though it is the first time out of the sleeve. The VG+ rating is used on any album that plays great but has one or two small defects. It may have a pop here and there or some occasional background static. On a VG album you can expect that, typically, this album will play great, but you’ll see more defects on this than your VG+ rated album. Most often the VG rated album may even play well enough to be graded VG+, but the color or blemishes drop the grading. Likewise, you may occasionally find an album that looks almost NM but the sound quality just isn’t there. That’s why I play every album first, because this does happen. In this case the vinyl will be graded VG. Occasionally I will list an album with a grade of G. This is one where I consider the collectible value of the album to be great enough that the copy being presented is worth having as a filler copy.
Shipping Information – Combined Shipping
The shipping cost will be based on the weight of your package. For Media Mail, shipping is $4.00 in the continental U.S. In addition, I will happily combine records from multiple auctions to reduce total shipping cost. In fact, I welcome it! Shipping will be $4.00 in the U.S regardless of the number of auctions won in any 5-day period.Canada shipping is calculated based on weight using US Postal Service rates. Combined shipping is also welcomed here and does result in significant per-album cost savings. The first album will be shipped for $21. Additional albums will be shipped for $6 per album, with up to four pounds able to be shipped before we need to use International Priority shipping. At that point we will work together on final determination of shipping cost.
Shipments to outside the US and Canada will vary depending on your country. Typically the cost per album will be no more than $25. Combined shipping is welcome here as well, at a cost of $10 per additional album up to the maximum of four pounds.
All albums will be shipped in specially designed album hard cardboard mailers with a cardboard insert to prevent damage upon opening. The vinyl is removed from the cover and presented in a new poly sleeve. I am committed to one day turnaround on shipments. If I receive payment before 7:00 AM Central Time I will package and ship that same day.
Thank you for looking and please contact me with any questions.
