Description
PLEASE READ BEFORE BIDDING: Please read the entire auction listing, including shipping costs, before writing to ask a question. OUR GOAL IS CUSTOMER SATISFACTION. In order to meet that goal, we will ALWAYS work with our customers on any concerns that may arise. In the unlikely instance that you feel the need to open a resolution dispute before working with us, you will immediately be blocked from any further chance to acquire the rare music we present each and every week. Payment is required within seven days. We mail all paid items ONE WEEK after auctions end. Please keep in mind our listings are time consuming in detail and we are often traveling to find these gems, which at times delays the delivery schedule by a day or two. We ALWAYS process and ship every paid order. We have no control over parcels once they are mailed from our local Post Office.Overseas mail to some countries (Italy, Russia, France, in particular) has became very slow. Opening a dispute for slow mail is unacceptable and will result in blocking the bidder. We work hard to provide excellent service as is represented by our 8000 plus positive feedback. We use a VPI machine and thoroughly clean all records. Each order is carefully packaged by removing the LP from the jacket to avoid seam splits, use of 3 ml plastic cover sleeves over each LP and jacket, cardboard pad inserts, and placed in sturdy record mailers for safe delivery. We take Customer Service seriously, and want you to be satisfied. Please give us 5 stars in each category through the feedback system, and we will be able to effectively continue to fulfill your passion for rare and collectible music! We have served thousands of satisfied customers - far more than our feedback records indicate - and our aim is to continue to do so. Thank you for your interest and support. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

RARE TOP MINT COPY 1966 FIRST PRESSING
CLASSIC BLUESROCK ALA BUTTERFIELD/BLOOMFIELD '60s CREW
The Barry Goldberg Blues Band
BLOWING THE MIND
\ USA - (yellow) EPIC Records - BN 26119
TOP MINTY CLEAN ...
Original 1966 first pressing in absolute archive final collection condition. This legendary album is on par with the first two Butterfield Blues albums and turns up way less than both.
This was a group effort but also tagged as a solo album by Barry Goldberg, featuring the lineup of Goldberg (keyboards/vocals), Charlie Musslewhite (harmonica), Harvey Mandel (guitar), Roy Ruby (bass) and Maurice McKinley (drums).
Prior to this album Barry Goldberg had sat in with various famous blues artists in his hometown of Chicago (including Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf and Otis Rush), briefly recorded as a duo with Steve Miller, and famously played keys for Bob Dylan's first electric gig at the Newport Folk Festival in 1965.
Blowing My Mind is pretty much pure blues, albeit it with a driving rock beat. All semi garage flavored bluesrockers with great guitar! Alongside covers of Jimmy Reed and T-Bone Walker songs and a few originals, it also has bluesy renditions of "That'll Be The Day" and "Whole Lotta Shaking Going On". The same guitar harp and keys line up as on Charlie Musselwhites first album but The Goldberg Blues band plays in more of a rock mode. Great stuff by all. The album is sadly overlooked, and always been hard to find. Side One:
Gettin' It Down
Mean Old World
Twice A Man
Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On
Big Boss Man
Side Two:
Blowing My Mind
That'll Be The Day
Can't Stand To See You Go
Put Me Down
