Dear Bob,
You are drawing a long bow with this one.
As we say here, "How long is a piece of string?"
I had to google widely to find information regarding the "Swamp Blues" LP you mention.
And even then didn't find the label illustration.
It is certainly not one that would tempt me musically, based on its contents.
I wonder how many DJMLers would know of it.
Very kind regards,
Bill.
