Skip James' Historic Paramount Recordings on Vinyl LP!
Remastered by Dave Gardner & Nick Townsend at Infrasonic Mastering!

Mississippi Delta blues artist Skip James, known for his career during the Great Depression and subsequent decades, played primarily in a minor key, featuring complex fingerpicking. He was "rediscovered" and became much more widely recognized during the 1960s when he was in very poor health nearing the end of his life.

After years of being out of print, The Complete 1931 Sessions, taken from James' Paramount recordings, is remastered and reissued by Org Music on black vinyl. Featuring new artwork and liner notes by author Larry Jaffee, the compilation is made up of some of the earliest years of the artist's career and showcases the astounding talent he possessed from the very beginning.
