Description

"Lolita, My Love" Blue Pear Records

This is a rare, hard-to-find live performance recording of the early-'80s musical adaptation of Vladimir Nabokov's "Lolita."  Alan Jay Lerner's wry lyrics and John Barry's tuneful music were never heard on Broadway, but the songs were NOT the problem. Some think they are among the best of the end of that golden age. Dorothy Loudon, John Neville and Leonard Frey give them subtlety and sparkle, even across the challenges of a Boston theater's in-house sound system. The audio is not going to make anyone forget Goddard Lieberson, but it is clear and full enough for anyone to appreciate the performances.

Our copy looks just like did 20 years ago when we took it out of its shrink wrap. The jacket has no scuffs or imperfections, and the corners are firm and straight. The LP itself was well maintained in its protective sleeve, and has no visible scratches or signs of mishandling.
