GATEMOUTH BROWN OZ ONLY PRESTIGE EP=AT THE HOP

 

Seriously great powerhouse electric guitar blues on the scarce Oz Prestige label without a cover.

It seems this wasn't released as an ep in the US. There being only one I can track -"Without Me Baby" on Big Town 150. The trax on "At The Hop" seem to be largely Peacock sides from the mid- fifties.It seems there was no cover issued for the Big Town release .

  Condition wise, there’s a royalty sticker on one side of the label. Otherwise it’s fine. The vinyl has light to moderate marks but plays about a grade above the one below. (ie no skips and virtually no backbround crackle) It’s been really well recorded with the stinging Vox amp- ish sound of his guitar to the fore. Two trax are vocals. I can’t speak highly enough of this ep. It’s no exaggeration to say it’s easily the best Chicago blues ever released on this format in this country.
