Record labels and manufacturers often mark the product casing to indicate
an "overstock" item that is offered for sale at a price significantly lower
than the manufacturer's selling price.
At OLDIES.com all item numbers
beginning with the prefix "VCL" are special clearance items that contain
this small marking. Because of this small marking, we are able to sell
these items to you at significant discount. Many of the audio CDs that
we advertise for $5.98 and lower are still sold for $15 and higher
elsewhere.
Rest assured, the audio CD is in brand-new condition, as we
do not sell used or second-hand product.

Product Description:
This is part of Collectables Stinson Collectors Series.
During the collegiate folk and blues boom of the late '50s and early '60s, it was traditional to release memorial albums dedicated to those artists who had died before this new audience had discovered them. Leadbelly, whose 1949 death predated the revival by nearly a decade, was one of the artists most beloved by the folk and blues revivalists, and so his memorial album originally stretched over four vinyl LPs, the third and fourth of which are collected here.
Taken in tandem, this CD and its companion are, as the original compilers intended, an excellent introduction to Leadbelly's astonishing musical and emotional range. The 19 tracks range from traditional ballads like "The Gallis Pole" to pointed social commentaries like the classic "Bourgeois Blues" and the less-familiar "The Red Cross Store Blues," with well-known standards alongside more obscure gems. These two CDs could be all the Leadbelly you need.
