Format: LP
Label: Chess
Release type: 180 Gram Vinyl LP Pressing.

Recorded at the crest of the early '60s folk revival, Folk Singer, despite it's title, is the blues in it's purest form. Returning to the all-acoustic approach of his earliest recordings, Waters is joined by Buddy Guy on guitar and Willie Dixon on bass, with subtle drum accompaniment from Clifton James on select tracks including "Good Morning Little Schoolgirl" and "Feel Like Going Home." Presented here in it's highly sought-after mono mix, Folk Singer has never sounded better. Bring home the sound of America's greatest blues label in high fidelity with the Chess Acoustic Sounds Series. These audiophile reissues of classic albums and compilations from the Chess discography are remastered from the original analog tapes and pressed on 180-gram vinyl at Quality Record Pressings (QRP). Each disc is packaged in tip-on gatefold sleeves printed on high-grade board.
