To celebrate Staunton Jams May 1-3, the Heifetz Music Shop will offer big discounts on a range of items from our collection of over 2,500 vinyl records and CDs. Our collection includes far more than just classical titles, including some classic Blues gems like those seen here:
Robert Johnson: The Complete Recordings Columbia 3 record set and 47 page booklet - The quintessential blues singer, guitarist, and songwriter whose innovative slide guitar, boogie, and walking bass lines, along with his poetic lyrics and distinctive falsetto singing, influenced generations of blues and rock musicians.
Fred McDowell Vol. 2: Mississippi Fred McDowell (1904–1972) was a legendary American singer and guitarist known as a master of North Mississippi hill country blues. Renowned for his hypnotic, driving bottleneck slide guitar style, he became a major figure in the 1960s blues revival after being recorded by Alan Lomax in 1959.
American Street Songs: Harlem Street Spirituals, sung by Rev. Gary Davis, Carolina Street Ballads, sung by Pink Anderson: A legendary split album featuring Reverend Gary Davis's Harlem Street Spirituals on one side and Pink Anderson's Carolina Street Ballads on the other. Anderson's seven tracks were recorded in Charlottesville, VA, on May 29, 1950 – while he was literally on the road. His highly sophisticated and self-accompanied style of simultaneously picking and sliding – accomplished using a half-opened jackknife – could pass for an electronic effect. The Rev. Gary Davis side – which appropriately contains all spirituals – was recorded in N.Y.C. on January 28, 1956.
