Description
The Holy Ground
This is a RARE Minty looking Grapevine Import LP with GREAT SOUND on both sides. Side one doesn't have a whole lot wrong with it. It's rich, sweet and tonally correct from top to bottom. Side two is the real winner here though with lots of presence and energy.
The cover shows some very slight wear and rates 8 out of 10. The record plays mostly Mint Minus on side one with some light surface noise during the quieter passages. Side two plays mostly Mint Minus with a lightly ticky edge and light ticks scattered throughout. AMG Review
Irish singer Mary Black is well known for deftly combining her Celtic roots with contemporary folk. On this release, she offers another strong set of songs, as she interprets songs from American folk favorite John Gorka ("Treasure Island") and connects with Anglo-folk tradition on the lovely "One Way Donkey Ride" (written by Sandy Denny of Fairport Convention fame). The acoustic instrumentation feature a rich blend of guitars, fiddles, saxophones, and accordions that add a timeless feel to most of her songs. The highlight of the album is "Loving Time," an emotional story of star-crossed lovers told with a bittersweet aching that few artists could deliver so poignantly. NOTE ON PACKING AND SHIPPING You will never receive a record from us packed in a flimsy cardboard mailer. We use HEAVY DUTY oversized cardboard boxes with cardboard protectors sandwiching the record and plenty of bubble wrap all around. After more than twenty years in the record business one thing we know is how to pack records properly, so rest assured the package will arrive at your door safe and sound.
