All selections were recorded 09/63 in what was then “state of the art” stereo separation. We left this severe right-left mix alone for historical accuracy, though it sounds pretty weird nowadays. Remember, this was in the days when the cool thing to do was record a train so it sounded like it was entering your living room on the left and exiting on the right.

Sticker affixed to wrapper reads: “The 35th Anniversary reissue of an American Blues Classic…with new notes by Tony Glover & bonus tracks from The Blues Project!”
