Excellent Chicago Blues, pretty "gritty" stuff
Also excellent sound considering these recordings were made at the beginning of the 20th Century

European release
Doulbe CD case, front booklet and rear insert are all in very good condition
Both CD media are in very good condition, visually inspected under a bright White halogen light source and I can see NO marks or scratches on either media. I then played the ENTIRE album, every track, and there are no issues with playback at all. Really enjoyable Blues although some of the songs are a bit "harsh", he bites with his lyrics
