Sound DNA

  • Blues

This record was released as a 10" LP by Topic in 1958 with a brown/orange textured pattern sleeve with Jack in the foreground. The second issue sleeve, with the same record had the generic vertical stripes with the paper information pasted over the top of the opening cover and into the inside. The third issue had the screen-printed picture which we see here. By the time of the second issue, the whole Topic operation had moved to Nassington Road. Only the first issue came from the Bishops Bridge Road address; both subsequent releases have the Nassington Road address on both sleeve and label.
The tracks were later reissued on a 12" record by Topic. See "Muleskinner" for details.
