Elmore James – Blues After Hours – Vinyl LP

High Quality, Limited Edition

180-gram VIRGIN VINYL LIMITED EDITION. Complete Album + 6 Bonus Tracks. Known as the “King of the Slide Guitar,” Elmore James was the most influential slide guitarist of the postwar period. His music went far beyond his premature death in 1963 at the age of forty-five. He was credited with helping to invent blues rock and his style influenced a generation of blues-rock players like Eric Clapton, Peter Green, Duane Allman, and The Rolling Stones. Blues After Hourswas James’ debut album, and one of the greatest blues albums of all-time.

“Blues After Hours, originally released on LP by Crown in 1960, was Elmore James’ first long-playing record. The crunchy garage sound of James’ arrangements coupled with his passionate edgy vocals, quickly made him one of the most influential blues artists of his time.” – AllMusic, 4.5 STARS
