    Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Good. Not a book but a 12-inch, 33-1/3 rpm vinyl LP record album, Charly CRB 1003, near-mint vinyl in a "good" cardboard jacket with modest damage to rear panel at the open edge and a crease which was turning into a crack (now repaired) down left side of jacket front panel (damage to cardboard jacket, only, NOT to vinyl disc. And the repaired crack to jacket front panel is visible in the hand, though it barely shows up on our scan.) Mr. Reed covers Luther Dixon and Al Smith's "Big Boss Man" (which he was first to record, back in 1960) but offers mostly his own originals, including "Shame, Shame, Shame," "Ain't That Loving You Baby," and "Honest I Do." The unusually frank jacket notes by Grammy-winning British music journalist Cliff White (who joined Charly Records as press officer in 1979, helping to set up their subsidiary label Charly R&B) report that Reed, an acknowledged influence on both Elvis Presley and the Rolling Stones, "was an outrageous boozer (our breakfast consisted largely of vodka, with a small side dish of scrambled sausage and marmalade) and there's no way that anybody in their right mind could claim he was a master of either of his two chosen instruments (guitar and harmonica.) None of that matters. He had style. Seldom rounding off a 'whole song' in the Tin Pan Alley tradition, Jimmy Reed was instead a maestro of the flip one-liner, natty couplet and insidious refrain; he had wit, warmth and ridiculous charm; he was an unpretentious, unsophisticated natural who, as much by accident as design, nonetheless gave the '50s rockers and '60s soul stars a run for their money by becoming one of the most commercially successful bluesmen of his age. . . ."
