Robert Wilkins Private LP

(1/2) > >>

uncle bud:
Normally I let ebay listings stay on ebay, but this one just has me too curious. Currently there is a listing for "LP - Private Record - Rev. Robert Wilkins - RARE". There is no track information given.

"Private Records PR 4 12" 33rpm LP Rare record Limited to 99 Copies - Not For Sale on label"

Using the zoom feature I can see the label has "1964" printed on it, and the tail end of a track title "...g Down", presumably "I Wish I Was In Heaven Sitting Down"

Anyone know anything about this?

Pretty sure that was a Document-related release of recordings from Newport and other festivals. I remember seeing it in the first Document catalog I had back in '91 or so. I couldn't afford anything pretty much at that time so didn't get it. Never seen a copy.

The same label had some Son House I think from his last public performance.

Excellent memory Chris. From a section of the back page of the August 1990 Document catalogue.

Thank you, fellas. Somehow I missed it on Stefan's discography as well, since it is there now that I look again. There are some titles on there that are not familiar to me. And the only version I have of Thank You Jesus is an instrumental, so would love to hear him with the Georgia Sea Island Singers. Someone should buy this and send me a copy.  :P
