Ir's not like Manship not to mention boot or repro if it is ! ! I guess everybody makes mistakes ?

John has a copy on his site right now, but it doesn't mention it's anything

BUT... if you search on Gemm, John's copy is categorised as 'RE-ISSUE'

https://www.gemm.com/item/KING-c-TURNER--AND--HIS--BLUES--BLASTERS/TWO--LOVES/GML8782248/

On both sites however, it does mention it's Big Joe Turner - so maybe it's just an oversight rather than trying to mislead?

BTW - co-incidently, Craig Moerer also has one for sale...
