While not the king, Robert Johnson was, by the 1930s, the first legendary star of the blues. A black star, whose nervous and desperate songs shook, fascinated, and intrigued generations of listeners. There's a lot of mystery in this music of a great loner, seemingly seeking refuge from anxiety in a relentless forward rush. Robert Johnson's long fingers scurrying across the neck of his guitar like a spider, the emotion that chokes his voice, the rare photographs we have of him... No one can escape the fascination. His songs have been compiled and reissued a thousand times, first on vinyl and then on CD. But the album King of the Delta Blues Singers stands apart: it was the first Robert Johnson compilation released in the 33 RPM format. The record with which America rediscovered Robert Johnson at the time. One of the totems of the folk-blues revival.

SHIPPING:

We ship Monday through Friday. Orders typically ship within 24-72 hours. Tracking is sent to the email you provide at check out and may take a few days to become active.

Any items ordered with Pre-Orders will be held until they can all ship together. If you need in stock items faster please order them seperately.

RETURNS:

Returns are only accepted on damaged or defective items. Return requests must be made within 7 days of delivery. Please save the original packaging.

If you own a Crosley, Victrola or any other lower end turntable that has no ability to adjust the weight of the tone arm and are experiencing skipping on a new record please try the "Penny Trick". Simply place a penny on the top of the cartidge and it should provide enough weight to resolve your issues. While a great entry to the world of vinyl we do recommend upgrading to a turntable with a tone arm that can be adjusted as this issue will randomly occur. We do not take returns in these cases.

Resellers: If you are buying from us for resale we honestly don't mind. However, please don't panic if something you bought suddenly isn't flipable for more money and then try to return stuff to us because you feel like you made a bad investment choice. Despite our outsized reputation we're a small shop, not amazon. Absorbing these costs adds up on places like ours. Plus a little patience always tends to pay off.

CANCELLATIONS:

Due to an increasing number of payment processors no longer returning transaction fees to sellers on cancelled orders and rising labor costs any orders or pre-orders that need to be cancelled before shipment will be assessed a 5% cancellation/restocking fee on the order total including shipping and any other taxes or fees associated with the order.

Thank you for your understanding.
