Label:	MISSISSIPPI RECORDS
Format:	2LP
Price:	$15.00
Catalog #:	MRP 006LP

"The complete works of Blind Willie Johnson (minus alternate takes of two songs) on one album for the first time! The most powerful gospel blues musician of all time growls & moans through twenty-nine amazing songs. Great duets, ballads & rockers. At times tough & at times tender slide guitar playing that makes the hairs on the back of your neck stand up. Not for the faint of heart. Beautiful clear transfers heard for the first time on vinyl. A onetime pressing not to be missed. Housed in a gatefold old school 'tip on' sleeve."

Title:	If I Had My Way, I'd Tear The Building Down
Label:	MONK (ITALY)
Format:	LP
Price:	$24.00
Catalog #:	MK 310LP

"Texas born Blind Willie Johnson is one of the most talented bottleneck guitar players to have ever lived, beginning to play with self-made instruments like a cigar box guitar when he was five. Performing a blues style that often borders on spiritual, Johnson always took great inspiration from religious music, as shown in songs like, 'Jesus Make Up My Dying Bed,' 'Jesus Is Coming Soon' and all throughout this compilation taken from his 1927-1930 recording sessions."
