Vinyl plays nicely; a few light hairlines (play-graded). Cover looks good, light scuffing and some creasing (front/back); front has a few surface abrasions near top left and back has slight discoloration with darker spots. Inner-sleeve is poly-lined paper; one seam partially split. Spine is easy-to-read with mild wear. Minor shelf-wear along top/bottom-edge and corners. Opening is crisp with signs of light use. (Not a cut-out.)
The Best of, by Mario Lanza, is a collection of this artist's greatest performances. Lanza was that rare artist who is equally at home and convincing in all kinds of music - opera, operetta, Neopolitan, canzone, popular and concert songs. He began recording for RCA Victor in 1949 and quickly became one of its all-time best-selling artists. His albums - more than twenty LPs currently available - comprise a rich treasury of song by one of the most popular artists ever to cross the American musical scene. (liner notes)
