Leadbelly:

Memorial Vol. 1:(1963)
One simply cannot say enough about the power of Leadbelly, in both voice and legend. I mean, the man sang his way out of prison, twice! There have also been few who's influence has permeated so many genres. I first heard of Leadbelly because of my fascination with the work of Bob Dylan, which lead me to Woody Guthrie, which lead me to Leadbelly.  
It's also worth mentioning that the music on this album is contained on a beautiful piece of red vinyl.
