Johnny Cash —
Greatest ... LP Sun, 1959. Very Good+ ...
$14.9924.99
The fantastic early sound of the great Johnny Cash – captured here by Sun Records, who really did a great job of bringing out the rhythmic pulse in Johnny's music! As with his best early singles, the style here is very raw – romping guitar riffs next to the man's incredible deep voice – set up perfectly on the sorts of tunes that just seem to get better and better the more you give them a listen! Titles include "Luther's Boogie", "I Just Thought You'd Like To Know", "I Forgot To Remember To Forget", "Katy Too", "You Tell Me", "Just About Time", "You Win Again", "Thanks A Lot", "Get Rhythm", and "I Could Never Be Ashamed Of You". LP, Vinyl record album
(Heavy yellow label pressing with GB etch in a "Stereo" cover. Cover has light wear and a small split on the bottom seam.)

Tim Hardin —
Painted Head ... LP Columbia, 1972. Very Good+ ...
Out Of Stock
A sublime early 70 set of rustic-accented folk, soul & blues from Tim Hardin that's heavy on covers – with tunes penned by Willie Dixon, Randy Newman, and others – in a soulful rock mode that's just ragged enough to give it a loose charm unlike any of Hardin's earlier work! Tim's in fine, effortlessly soulful voice here on material that could have found him going over the top, ala Joe Cocker, but he's tastefully restrained throughout. An underrated gem! Titles include the a loosely buzzing cover of the eternal Bo Diddley via Willie Dixon masterpiece "You Can't Judge A Book By The Cover" and Dixon's "Do The Do", plus "Midnight Caller", "Yankee Lady", "Lonesome Valley", "Till We Meet Again", "I'll Be Home", "Nobody Knows You When You're Down And Out" and more. (Rock, Folk/Country)LP, Vinyl record album
Think you know everything you need to know about Burl Ives from Christmas shows and kiddie programs? Think again – because the Ives on this set is a completely different character altogether – a witty country music raconteur with quite an edge – often singing lyrics rich in biting political commentary, set to a gently jaunty groove that really helps Burl's vocals hit home! LP, Vinyl record album
