I can't recall where I bought it, but check out the Arhoolie (the label the CD is on) web page and you might be able to find it there. I hope it's still in print. You might be able to find it on Amazon too.
You will not be disappointed! I only wish there was more of his stuff available, but to my knowledge, this is it.
I know the recording on the LP (now a CD) was made in 1962. He used to minister in the streets in such places as skid row in Phoenix. I may have to google the info again on him, but I recall that he died and possibly some of his kids are gone too. In fact, I'm curious all over again and will probably google Louis Overstreet to see if I can find anything new.
Good luck on getting the CD, it will blow you away.
My grandfather talk about Rev. Louis Overstreet outside of Mason Temple all the time. He states that they stirred up a lot dust outside of Mason Temple. This berfore Mason Temple had grass. I am grateful for my hertiage.
I wasn't aware the white people like this kind of music.

I'm Jewish, but Rev. Overstreet would get me into church in no time.
I was lucky in 1971 to find the LP shown in this video, now I have it on CD. It never fails to please.

@6motion6 Thank you so much! Do you know anything about this Pastor? His history? How he lived and died? Where his children are now?

They tell me he used to play his guitar outside Mason Temple just before the actual service started (national conventions)
