A VG++ LP ON ARCTIC 1000
FROM 1965 IN STEREO AND STILL WITH SHRINK WRAP OVER COVER!
TRACKS AS SHOWN ON THE LABEL PHOTOS
BACKGROUND INFO FROM ALLMUSIC.COM WEBSITE:
Barbara Mason was very much a teenager when "Yes, I'm Ready" climbed the charts and this endearing debut LP was released. "Ready" is a captivating ballad that has been remade by many. Her first hit single, "Girls Have Feelings Too," shows the sweet innocence of youth. "Sad, Sad Girl," another self-written Mason ballad, drips with hurt as she explains how blue her world has become since she lost her fellow. Mason wrote most of her singles and has said they're based on real life experiences; she often could be seen visibly crying on stage while delivering one of her songs. Other than the B-sides, the rest of the album consists of remakes like "Something You Got," "Moon River," and "Misty." Mason wasn't at her best redoing the material of others; the efforts seem lackluster compared to her recordings of original compositions.
COVER STOCK STILL WITH WHAT APPEARS TO BE THE ORIGINAL SHRINK WRAP INTACT. CORNERS WITH SMALL ROUGH SPOTS AND OUTER LAYER LOSSES ON POINT. BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER WITH BEND MARK. NOTWITHSTANDING, A PICTURE IS WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS, SO PLEASE DO LOOK AT THE COVER PHOTOS TO ASCERTAIN COVER CONDITION.
VIRGIN SPINDLE HOLE. THE HIGH LUSTER VINYL BLANK AT FIRST GLANCE OUT OF THE SLEEVE APPEARS UNUSUALLY PRISTINE AND TO HAVE NOT BEEN PLAYED, MUCH LESS TOUCHED, BEFORE NOW. UNDER BRIGHT ANGLED LIGHT AND ASSIDUOUS EXAMINATION SIDE 1 WITH TWO SURFACE RUB SCUFF LINES ACROSS THE FIRST 3 TRACKS IN THE 2-3 POSITION AND THE ONLY REASON TO SAY VG++ INSTEAD OF MINT MINUS. WE'VE TEST PLAYED THIS LP BY SAMPLING EACH TRACK 2-3 TIMES ON A VPI TURNTABLE WITH A GRADO REFERENCE ONE WOOD CARTRIDGE WITHOUT NOTICE OF THE ABOVE ITEMS AND SOUNDING QUITE FINE HERE.
