Don Covay rides his most creative crest as a solo artist with this hearty collection of songs. The settings are simplistic for Atlantic Records, which recorded similar artists in lusher settings. But rawness is what makes these recordings arresting. A guitarist as well as a singer, Covay's pickings aren't buried in the mix, and you don't need a Geiger counter to detect the grooves. Most impressive are "See Saw," "Mercy Mercy," "Sookie, Sookie," and "Boomerang," a call to dance with the feeling of Major Lance singing a Curtis Mayfield song. On "Fat Man," you wonder if he's singing about his old Washington, D.C., buddy Billy Stewart. The two began their careers with the Rainbows.

 (EXCERPT FROM AN ONLINE REVIEW BY ANDREW HAMILTON, ALL MUSIC GUIDE  /ALLMUSIC.COM/)

Don Covay was one of the biggest names of the sixties soul - a gentleman whose penmanship and songwriting skill (not to mention interpretive prowess) attracted the attention of such mega-stars as Aretha Franklin, Booker T. and the MG's, Stepenwolf and many,many,many other. We have a pleasure of presenting here his second - and greatest, we think - album from his golden "Atlantic" age. As was usually the case in the mid-60's, the album combines much of his first album with a few assorted hits and b-sides tossed in for good measure. The album contains three of Don's greatest hits (See-Saw; Mercy,mercy and Sookie sookie) - literally and figuratively everything you ever wanted to have by Don Covay but were afraid to ask - and reads like Don Covay's Greatest Hits.

·       CONDITION:

·       RECORD

 (IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded!; we  grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight)

(a)          WE GRADE THE VINYL  AS  NEAR MINT. Some VERY LIGHT AND SUPERFICIAL abrasions – mostly sleeve scuffs -  are (barely) visible, but are probably inaudible,  and do not affect visual integrity or beauty of the vinyl. The original luster is very much intact, and the vinyl shines and sparkles almost like new.

(b)          The record comes in the original stock inner sleeve.

(c)           The record is pressed on a beautiful, thick, inflexible vinyl, which was usually used for the first or very early pressings. Usually, the sound on such thick vinyl pressings is full-bodied, vivid, and even dramatic. Do not expect to obtain such a majestic analog sound from a digital recording!

(d)          Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording!!!

·       COVER

The following flaws or imperfections are noted on the cover:

-         Cover shows JUST A HINT of yellowing on back side, apparently from aging.

-         Cover has two corners slightly worn / dinged  (two small, barely visible, pieces of reinforcing scotch tape noted on these two corners)
