Jimmy Reed - As Jimmy Is (1971) Roker - Rare Blues (FLAC 174MB)

This is one of jimmy,s rarest albums still on vinyl though it did get a CD release in canada in 2002 as moxy has it. The vinyl version was offered to me hence the review. before any eagle eye asks, the back cover has track 1 in 2 parts, i was told that there is no part 2 on any of the releases. It's listed on the cover but not on the label, maybe planned but dropped.It's available only on a 45. I love this guy and this album is a killer if you love funky blues. jimmy was born in Mississippi in 1925 and passed in 1976. He recorded 26 studio albums and nearly 100 45,s known for his raw vocals & Electric Gutar/Harmonica playing. Fantastic album!
