2021 restock"Big Joe Williams is one of the most unique blues artists of all-time. Playing a 9-string guitar of his own creation and belting out the blues in his nearly incomprehensible style, this is an absolute classic of an LP and one of the earliest releases on the legendary Arhoolie label. Reissued here with an exact reproduction of the paste-on sleeve. Includes download card."

2021 restock. "Arguably the greatest recordings of the great Fred McDowell's career were the two albums for Arhoolie, recorded at the height of the blues revival in 1964-65. This is the first of those two and an absolutely stunning piece of delta blues majesty. Stripped down beauty that's reissued here with an exact reproduction of the paste-on sleeve. Includes download card."

"This LP, from Houston zydeco group, The Sam Brothers 5, is mostly coveted by collectors for the Chic-esque funk of closing track 'S.A.M.,' but this is high quality traditional zydeco all the way through the rest of the record. It's reissued here on high quality vinyl with an exact reproduction of the original sleeve. Includes download card."

"Texan bluesman Melvin Lil Son Jackson was a contemporary of Lightnin' Hopkins who originally recorded for the Gold Star and Imperial labels in the '40s and '50s. A car accident in the mid-'50s led to Jackson giving up the music career and returning to work as a mechanic. Arhoolie's Chris Strachwitz pulled him out of retirement in 1960, convincing him to record this classic and rare Texas blues LP. Reissued in all its original glory." Includes download card.

2021 restock. "The very first release on the legendary Arhoolie label, from way back in 1960, is also the first for Texas acoustic blues great Mance Lipscomb who was a mere 65 years old at the time of its release. Prior to being discovered by the label's founder, Chris Strachwitz, Lipscomb had spent his life as a sharecropper in his hometown of Navasota, Texas. Lipscomb's discovery was one of the greatest by-products of the blues and folk revival of the late '50s and early '60s as this fantastic vinyl reissue of his first album will attest. Classic country-blues from a master." Includes download card.
