Reissue as essential blues introduction
I'm Jimmy Reed is one of the best blues albums of all time, and this reissue is the perfect way to get into his music. The remaster sounds fantastic.

Analog warmth and tip-on jacket quality
All analog cut by Matthew Lutthans, pressed at QRP... sounds incredible. Tip-on jacket is beautiful, but watch out—the shrink wrap on mine was crazy tight and caused a small seam split.
