Little Willie John
Mister Little Willie John
King 603, 1960 ORIGINAL MONO (NOT REISSUE)
This is a beautiful copy of Little Willie John's second album. As soulfull as Otis Redding or James Brown, (Brown in fact recorded a tribute album to John shortly after his death in 1968), Little Willie John is truly R&B royalty.
The sleeve is NM- condition with a seam split starting along the top. The record is in NM with with no spindle wear on the black King label. A near-perfect copy that has been played maybe twice within it's almost 50-year lifetime. This has been play graded and is an excellent listening copy.
AMG REVIEW Little Willie John's second album for King, Mister Little Willie John, finds the little singer with the huge voice belting out a variety of tunes ranging from big ballads to rocking R&B to swinging blues. Unlike on his first two records, John is joined much of the time here by a vocal chorus. He sounds as great as always, but the music can't help but be weakened by the extra sweetening, especially on the uptempo tracks like "Look What You've Done to Me" and "Let's Rock While the Rockin's Good." The tracks where the vocal group is kept in check, coincidentally, are not the tracks that make the record worth seeking out. These include the fingerpopping "You Got to Get Up Early in the Morning," "Let's Rock While the Rockin's Good," "A Little Bit of Lovin'," "Why Don't You Haul Off and Love Me," and the cute rockabilly novelty "Spasms." Even though some of the material is not up to par, the album is still worth seeking out due to Little Willie John's amazing voice. He could give you goose bumps singing the directions for programming a VCR. For a demonstration, check him out on the swooning "You're a Sweetheart." You just can't get too much of Little Willie John. - Tim SendraTRACK LISTING:

Goldmine Rating System Back to Top The following is the grading system first developed by Goldmine Records. Virtually all methods currently in use for the grading of records, is based in some way, shape, or form, on this system. Unless otherwise noted, records are visually graded.
- Mint (M) Absolutely perfect in every way. Certainly never been played, possibly even still sealed. Should be used sparingly as a grade, If at all.
- Near Mint (NM) A nearly perfect record. The record should show no obvious signs of wear. An LP cover should have no creases, folds, seam splits or other noticeable similar defects. No cut-out holes, either. And of course, the same should be true of any other inserts, such as posters, lyric sleeves and the like.
- Very Good Plus (VG+) A Very Good Plus record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled. Record surfaces may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect sound. Sleeves will have some slight wear, lightly turned up corners, or a slight seam split. An LP cover may have slight signs of wear also and may be marred by a cut-out hole, indentation or corner.
- Very Good (VG) Surface noise will be evident upon playing, but will not overpower the music. Groove wear will start to be noticeable, as with light scratches (deep enough to feel with a fingernail) that will affect the sound. LP covers may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached.
- Good (G) Will play through without skipping, but will have significant surface noise and scratches and visible groove wear. A cover or sleeve will have seam splits, especially at the bottom or on the spine. Tape, writing, ring wear or other defects will start to overwhelm the object.
Fine Print Back to Top All records are securely packed with the disc packaged separtely from sleeve to prevent splitting.
