THE NIGHTCAPS, one of the first widely known white blues bands, were formed by high school frienThe Nightcapsds Billy Joe Shine (vocals), David Swartz (guitar), Jack Allday (drums), Mario Daboub (bass) and Gene Haufler (rhythm guitar) in 1958. Over the years they became fixtures on their local Dallas, Texas blues scene, greatly influencing the blues and R&B acts that subsequently prospered in the region. As well as performing blues standards such as Muddy Waters' "I've Got My Mojo Working" and Junior Parker's "Next Time You See Me", The Nightcaps wrote several affecting originals. The most noteworthy of these were the singles "Thunderbird" and "Wine, Wine, Wine". "Thunderbird" was later covered by devotees ZZ Top early in their career. During this period, they became a major influence on such future luminaries as Jimmie Vaughan -- who apparently learned every song off the Nightcaps' LP -- and his younger brother, Stevie Ray Vaughan, who thought Wine, Wine, Wine was just a great record, and ZZ Top. Vaughan would later record "Thunderbird," and ZZ Top used it to open their Fandango album. Billy Joe Shine still leads a revival version of the band in the Dallas area with Lead Guitarist(an original Nightcap)Gene Haufler, along with Len Mills on Rhythm Guitar and Keyboard, and brother Dennis Mills on Bass, Mark Minton on Drums, and Richard Williams on Saxophone.

Sound clip is from all four songs "Wear Ring Around Your Neck" "Treat Me Nice", "One Night" and "Thats All Right"

Vinyl - in VG condition plays with lite scratches, but faint. But overall very nice RARE record, very hard to find. A must for any collector. I guess this was a first pressing, and didn't sold very well because of its price on a 4 song record and only some were made in 59'. but in 1960 it came out with the black label. Not so sure on that, its just my guess, if that makes sence or actually history tells us. Honestly, I don't know, not a expert on such articles.

This is a very good plus record with lots of shine and clean, but had to rated VG only because it has stickers on both sides. Now it does have some clicks at beginning of record and a little between songs, but give a listen to clip and hear for yourself, ..Please!!

comes with a generic or white sleeve.

15 dollars in international shipping for Lp's and 7 dollars for 45's.

Thanks for looking and Happy bidding!!!!!.

Near mint - Like new without any flaws with an occasional and few light scratches. Anything better than that would be considered Mint condition.

VG+,  - Thin line scratches with little or no effect on playing record. Plenty of shine on disc. 

VG,   - Some scratches with some pops during play, but not so disturbing, very good with some shine.

G+   - Plays with many light scratches but still can hear the music.

G-   -Enjoying the music, but with more undesirable noise

F  - Fair condition with scuffs and scratches and low audio quality.
