Not sure when the superb original recordings were made (they sound pretty old) but this is a reissue of a compilation of them released in 1971. There's no indication of when the reissue appeared, most likely during the 1970s? Great songs and genuine vocal skills.

Sleeve a tidy VG+. Vinyl is EX, a lovely clean sound throughout.



PLEASE NOTE: I do not "sight-test" records and list with comments like "vinyl looks to be in good condition". This is because a disc can look perfect but still have surface noise throughout (as I've found on too many occasions). All my records are played from start to finish on a fairly unforgiving Sansui deck fitted with an Ortofon cartridge and stylus.
