Stumpwater - Motel In Saginaw (Vinyl) - FOLK *NEW*

  • Stumpwater - Motel In Saginaw (Vinyl) - FOLK *NEW*

Item Description

STUMPWATER had an unreleased 1973 LP. Yep — and not only that, it’s a friggin’ concept LP about the characters populating a small town hotel (think Lee Hazlewood’s Trouble is a Lonesome Town, but not really) called Motel in Saginaw (a place ol’ Mike Nesmith seemed to know too). To say the Motel In Saginaw homespun album was a revelation is putting it lightly — gorgeous tunes about death that’d have Simon and G crying in their cappuccinos, creepy Dylan-esque tales that David Blue would have liked to have written, maudlin hearts of gold in every groove — basically a hazy, sepia-stained song cycle for all the Judy Blue Eyes in the world to get lost in while rollin’ a dirt- weed joint. The Topanga Canyon-in-thee-midwest boheme coffeehouse has finally come to you via this archival release. The deluxe package includes an inner sleeve with photos and info, a cracking mastering job by wunderkind Carl Saff and an original (hopefully non-warped) copy of their original private-press single. The complete Stumpwater at last! So kick back, take your socks off, drop the needle on this lost classic-to-be, and let yer hair blow in the prairie wind, my dusty denim children.

Condition Ratings

MINT (M): Perfect, brand new, unplayed.

Near Mint (NM): Like new, barely played, will play perfectly.

Excellent (EX): Very close to near mint, with minor cosmetic wear. Will play perfectly.

Very Good Plus (VG+): Light cosmetic blemishes that do not affect play. Close to perfect playback.

Very Good (VG): Some light marks that may cause minor noise during playback. Still enjoyable and plays well.

Good Plus (G+): Noticeable noise during playback. Only listed if of collector value. Not ideal for listening.

You may request the results of a play test. Shipping can be combined on multiple items!

New records can be nicely taken out of their sealed sleeves and shipped this way to protect from seam splits during transit. If you’d like this done, please let us know or leave a note when you place your order.
