In the blues, one of them is Muddy Waters' \u003cem\u003eFolk Singer\u003c\/em\u003e. Originally released in 1964, \u003cem\u003eFolk Singer\u003c\/em\u003e was the only acoustic album Waters ever recorded, thus becoming the first and perhaps best blues concept album ever. Muddy of course started out playing acoustic blues in the Delta, and he's clearly very comfortable in this return to his roots, which was designed to appeal to the mid-1960s surge of interest in folk music.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMuddy's supporting cast includes a very young Buddy Guy on guitar, Willie Dixon at the upright bass and Clifton James on drums.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis recording has enormous presence with ample room for Muddy's booming voice to resonate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003e* It is standard practice in all recording studios to keep the tape \"tail out.\" This reduces \"pre-echo\" and it means that the tape should be placed on the right hand side of the recorder, re-wound and then played.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection id=\"features\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnalogue Productions Ultra Tape Reel to Reel Reissue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 Reels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e15 ips, 1\/4-inch, 2-track (1\/2 Track) Analog Tape Copy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSourced from the Original Master Tapes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e10.5\" NAB Reels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIEC (CCIR)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTransferred Using ATR-Modified Ampex Tape Machine with Flux Magnetic Heads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCustom Slipcase Cover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection id=\"selections\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSelections\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMy Home Is in the Delta\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLong Distance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMy Captain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGood Morning School Girl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou Gonna Need My Help\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCold Weather Blues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBig Leg Woman\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCountry Boy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFeel Like Going Home\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Master Vinyl UK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55840134562131,"sku":null,"price":575.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/3905\/9539\/files\/IMG_2841.webp?v=1794419953","url":"https:\/\/mastervinyl.shop\/products\/muddy-waters-folk-singer-reel-to-reel-tape-ultra-tape-2-reels-pre-order","provider":"Master Vinyl UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
