Usually ships in 3-6 business days

Limited gold colored vinyl LP pressing. For Mourning In The Morning, his 1969 album debut on Atlantic Records, southpaw blues guitar legend Otis Rush journeyed from his Chicago home to Fame Recording Studios in Muscle Shoals, Alabama - a burg best known for seminal soul platters. Backed by a horn-powered band that included a young Duane Allman on rhythm guitar, Otis' slashing axe and anguished vocals glowed on the tortured You're Killing My Love, remakes of his Cobra Records classics My Love Will Never Die and It Takes Time, and a stunning revival of B.B. King's Gambler's Blues. Half the set consisted of new compositions from producers Mike Bloomfield and Nick Gravenites, and Rush's mile-wide string bending on a shimmering instrumental version of Aretha Franklin's Baby I Love You is utterly breathtaking. Me, Working Man, You're Killing My Love, Feel So Bad, Gambler's Blues, Baby I Love You, My Old Lady, My Love Will Never Die, Reap What You Sow, It Takes Time, Can't Wait No Longer
