ARTHUR GUNTER BLACK and BLUES
THIS IS A VERY RARE ALBUM, AND ONLY RELEASED IN THE U.S.A, AND THE UK. IT WAS RELEASED IN THE UK IN 1971 ON THE BLUE HORIZON LABEL, WITH A DIFFERENT COVER, AND CALLED, "BLUES AFTER HOURS", AND CAN SELL FOR LOTS OF MONEY. THE ONE LISTED BELOW IS FROM THE U.S.A, ALSO RELEASED IN 1971, ON THE EXCELLO LABEL, AND A DIFFERENT COVER TO THE UK VERSION, AND CALLED, "BLACK AND BLUES".


THIS IS THE ONE AND ONLY ARTHUR GUNTER, WHO WAS FROM, OGLETHORPE COUNTY, GEORGIA, AND WAS ACTIVE FROM 1950 TO 1973, AND HIS MUSIC IS, ELECTRIC BLUES, R&B, AND LOUISIANA BLUES, AND IF YOU ARE A JOHN MAYALL FAN, THEN YOU CERTAINLY WILL WANT THIS RARE BLUES ALBUM IN YOUR COLLECTION, AND IT PLAYS NEAR FAULTLESS, AND COMES FROM MY PERSONAL TREASURED VINYL COLLECTION !!!!
DISCLAIMER :: ALL MY LP'S LISTED ON THIS SITE ARE ORIGINAL AND NOT FAKE OR COUNTERFEIT, AND ARE SOLD IN GOOD FAITH. THEY WERE BOUGHT ON THE DATE OF ISSUE. THANK YOU !!

THIS IS AN ORIGINAL 1971 U.S.A PRESS :: EXCELLO 8017 A  ::  EXCELLO 8017 B .

ON THE EXCELLO LABEL :: EXC-8017 .
COVER  ::  ORIGINAL FIRST PRESS U.S.A, MADE FROM THICKER AND HEAVYWEIGHT CARD, WITH NICE SOLID SPINE AND EDGES, WITH A RUB ON THE CORNERS, AND A COUPLE OF WRAP AROUND CREASE LINES ON THE SPINE SIDE EDGE, WITH THE OPENING EDGE STILL SHARP. THERE ARE SOME BITS OF FAINT SURFACE RUB ON THE FRONT AND BACK, AND HONESTLY NOTHING NASTY, AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PHOTOS, AND A SMALL FAINT STICKER RESIDUE MARK, TOP RIGHT CORNER ON THE FRONT, AND WITH NOTHING ELSE I WOULD GRADE  :: VG+ .   VINYL ::  THE VINYL PLAYS BRILLIANT, WITH A GREAT AUDIO TO LISTEN TO !!!! THERE IS NO STATIC, CRACKLE, POPS, CLICKS, JUMPS, STICKS OR STICKS, AND ALL I HEARD WAS ....
ON SIDE 1 :: JUST ONE SINGLE FAINT TICK AFTER THE START OF TRACK 6, ON SIDE 2 . 
ON SIDE 2 :: NOTHING TO REPORT .
VISUALLY, ONLY UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT, THERE ARE JUST A FEW HARMLESS COSMETIC SLEEVE REMOVAL SPIDER WEB THREAD ULTRA FINE LINES, AND A VERY TINY PRESSING MARK JUST AFTER THE START OF TRACK 6 ON SIDE 2, AND IT HAS NO EFFECT ON THE AUDIO, SO WITH JUST ONE SINGLE FAINT TICK, I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO  :: EX+/NEAR MINT .  BUT MUCH NEARER TO NEAR MINT !!!! 

LABELS :: SOME FAINT SPINDLE LINES AT THE CENTRE :: EX/EX+ .

ORIGINAL INNER ::  NOW THIS IS THE ORIGINAL U.S.A INNER !!!! NICE AND CLEAN, BUT THERE IS A LARGE SEAM SPLIT ON BOTH SIDE EDGES, WITH THE BOTTOM EDGE SOLID, AND A TEAR ON THE OPENING EDGE, BEST TO LOOK AT THE PHOTOS THANK YOU !!!! SO WITH NOTHING ELSE, AND ALTHOUGH NICE AND CLEAN, WITH THE SEAM SPLITS, I WILL HAVE TO GRADE AS JUST  :: GOOD .   OF COURSE THE VINYL WILL COME IN A NEW POLYLINED INNER ALONG WITH THE ORIGINAL LISTED ABOVE !!!!

SO AN AMAZING, VERY RARE U.S.A 1971 VINYL ALBUM, AND IF YOU WERE TO BUY THE 1971 UK VERSION WHICH HAS THE SAME TRACKS, BUT A DIFFERENT COVER, LABELS, AND TITLE, THAT'S IF YOU COULD FIND ONE, THEN YOU ARE TALKING LOTS OF MONEY !!!! THANK YOU AS ALWAYS FOR YOUR TIME !!!! ROSE .
