Analogue Productions

 Legendary Delta bluesman's Columbia LP now a 180-gram 45 RPM 2LP set that includes bonus track: "Motherless Children". Lacquers cut by Ryan K. Smith at Sterling Sound from the original master tape, plated and pressed at Quality Record Pressings, and with a heavyweight glossy tip-on jacket by Stoughton Printing. Mississippi's Son House was already legendary for a small collection of live field recordings made by folklorist Alan Lomax in 1941 and 1942, and for having taught some important licks to both Robert Johnson and Muddy Waters before he was rediscovered by a new generation of college-age fans in 1964. 

The "Father of the Delta Blues" recorded this namesake LP for Columbia Records a year later in 1965. It's become, in the words of Living Blues magazine — "Essential recordings by one of the greatest bluesmen ever." And now, Analogue Productions presents a reissue unmatched in sonic quality and luxury presentation. For our version we turned to Ryan Smith at Sterling Sound to remaster the recording from the original master tapes. The freshly cut lacquers — for this version we've cut the album at 45 RPM for truer cartridge tracking and decreased distortion on the inner groove — were then plated and pressed on 180-gram vinyl by our own Quality Record Pressings.
