Vinyl plays with crackles and occasional clicks and pops (play-graded). Cover looks great; a few creases near edges; light-scuffing and surface impressions (front/back); front has tiny discoloration spot near right center and back has slight discoloration with darker spots. Inner-sleeve is original (ABC ads). Spine is easy-to-read with mild-wear. Little shelf-wear along top/bottom-edge; some wear to corners. Opening is crisp with signs of light use and divots. (Not a cut-out.)
Johnny Nash, is an album of ballads which are standards admirably suited to the Nash talent. They are songs that were popular toward the end of the big band era. Here are songs that have been somewhat overlooked in the musical melee of Tin Pan Alley; songs that require the proper touch of musicianship to complement their beauty. Selected by Nash and Don Costa, these compositions have been given outstanding arrangements. Here is talent; here is youth; here is Johnny Nash.
