                            ...USA - Microdot - AB 1 

RARE...long long gone exact 2ndpressing from many many moons ago...you see this issue almost as infrequently as the first press...obviously not many copies were produced some 30 or so years ago... The Very first AMERICAN BLUES album from 1968, and one of the elite garage/fuzz/psych gems of the era...a first pressing will cost into the $400 - $500+ range... the tracks are mexmerizing with psyched-out tones and fuzz guitar injections all throughout...pretty much hand in hand with the Moving Sidewalks Lp from a year later...

We've compared, and can't tell the difference in sound quality with this old 2nd press VS the first press...

American Blues  were a 1960s Texas-based garage band who played a psychedelic style of blues rock music influenced by the 13th Floor Elevators. They are most famous for including two future members of the ZZ Top trio in their ranks, Dusty Hill and Frank Beard. From 1966 to 1968, they played the Dallas-Fort Worth-Houston circuit and headlined in three clubs all called "The Cellar", in Dallas at clubs such as "The Walrus" on Mockingbird Lane, and in Houston at "Love Street Light Circus Feel Good Machine" on Allen's Landing, as late as 1968. 

One of the better known Dallas bands of this era American Blues were originally known as The Warlocks. Their first album was produced by Scotty McKay and recorded at Robin Hood Brian's studio in Tyler, Texas. Side one is predominantly psychedelic and a 45 from it was issued the following year. Side two is in more of a heavy psych-rock style. Either way, either style, it's a hands down winner for old 60's garage & psych collectors...
