JOHN FAHEY - Volume 1 / Blind Joe Death

Item Description

Vinyl, , 1967 re-recordings
LP Album Mono

This album comprises the 1967 re-recordings of the entire album, plus 1 new track (B5). A red label was added to the previous version cover, claiming “NEWLY RECORDED in MAGNIFICENT MONO! Contains one brief new song.”

Confusingly, the notes refer to the 1959 and 1964 recordings and don’t mention the new track.

This mono release was soon superseded by the stereo version in the pale blue woodcut cover [r6071422]

Glossy black labels with silver print, but no parallel, horizontal lines on labels. Label states artist to be John Fahey, not John Fahey, guitar.

On the back cover (identical to that for [r3205007]), the tracks for side 2 are listed first, followed by the tracks for side 1, and the track list is numbered 1 to 10.

This is an 11 track album and track A6, though listed on rear cover, is not listed on the label; track B5 is listed on the label but not on the rear cover.
