First time vinyl collection of the cream of Jeb's stunningly soulful music, as Be With see it, with remastered audio with specially commissioned artwork by Jeb Loy Nichols himself. Only 500 copies worldwide in this pressing.

Jeb Loy Nichols is a bonafide Country (Got) Soul legend. The Music Maker presents 21 incredibly deep, grooving and soulful songs from the cream of Jeb's catalogue; from its earliest days to his latest unreleased gems via countless rare and unbelievably good lost-classics.
