Original JOHN HAMMOND- MIRRORS Blues BLOOMFIELD- Vinyl LP Record on Vanguard, VRS-9425, stereo.
I found a comparable listing to this record on Popsike.com. The record I am listing is equal to this (which closed on ebay at $228 on 4-24-2010).
This record looks like it has never been played. It's also in it's original Vanguard inner sleeve. The cover is between VG+ and Near Mint minus with wear only to a couple corners. It's super clean and tight. This is the stereo version, VRS-9245 (it is noted that the listing below is VSD 79245 - stereo. Regardless, the stereo version is the most desirable and sought after).

MINTY CLEAN....ORIGINAL 1967 first pressing of rare blues album classic that among other stabdouts includes main members from THE BAND (Robbie Robertson, Levon Helm & Garth Hudson) and Mike Bloomfield guitar...
John Hammond, is one of the great Blues rockers, traditionalists, and preservationists. John is a very underrated guitarist, and this album demonstrates how good his electric guitar work can be. With a career that spans over three decades, John Hammond is one of handful of white blues musicians who was on the scene at the beginning of the first blues renaissance of the mid-'60s. That revival, brought on by renewed interest in folk music around the U.S., brought about career boosts for many of the great classic blues players, including Mississippi John Hurt, Rev. Gary Davis, and Skip James. Some critics have described Hammond as a white Robert Johnson, and Hammond does justice to classic blues by combining powerful guitar and harmonica playing with expressive vocals and a dignified stage presence. Within the first decade of his career as a performer, Hammond began crafting a niche for himself that is completely his own: the solo guitar man, harmonica slung in a rack around his neck, reinterpreting classic blues songs from the 1930s, '40s, and '50s.

This record is from the collection of a DJ from the 1960's and 1970's. He never even listened to most of the records and stored them in a smoke-free environment. They were placed on hard shelves and were always stored vertically.
I have another 4,000 rare and pristine records from that collection; many are white label promos, all as nice as the item I have listed here. A truly incredible collection that spans all genres of music. Please check out all of the new items I will be listing in the upcoming days.
Thank you for looking and good luck bidding.
