Description

Root Beer Vinyl LP!

Seismic specimens of 1969 country blues! California Mudslide (And Earthquake) was Lightnin Hopkins last LP in his original run of long play releases...a strong slab of electric delta blues replete with sparse, signature acoustic guitar backing, augmented with organ and other surprises. The legend at his lonesomeston Modern Harmonic!

"This album eschewed the trend to modernize by staying resolutely sparse and rural. All the tracks are original, one of its themes - especially the sleeve image, being mildly ecological and so relevant todaystellar sound quality, one of the unexpected benefits of the blues greats being rescued during their dotage. Haunting study, the Texas bluesman observing Southern California in the 1960s and yet sounding like it's the 1930s." - Ken Kessler, Hi-Fi News, September 2019, Sound Quality: 85%
