"The year is now 1958, but London's satiny voice is still as earthy
and seductive. ... Pressed at QRP, the surfaces are wonderous. But this
album is all about London, a pitch perfect and understated talent who
understood that less is more." — Neil Gader, The Absolute Sound, September 2015
"A few bars into the opening track, 'Blue Moon', and there is little
doubt why Analogue Productions chose to reissue this LP. London's
breathy phrasing is captured perfectly, and few records present a more
compelling facsimile of a singer, guitar and bass player performing in
your listening room. This excellent Kevin Gray mastering is matched with
a first class foldout cover, filled with sex kitten shots of London.
Fabulous sound and music worth savoring." Recording = 10/10; Music =
8/10 – Dennis D. Davis, Hi-Fi+, Issue 122
Analogue Productions has brought back Julie Is Her Name Volume 2, making
it an undeniable classic in every sense of the word. Remastered by
Kevin Gray at Cohearent Audio, and plated and pressed on 180-gram vinyl
at Quality Record Pressings, the result is a memory-stirring
masterpiece.
Julie Is Her Name — Volume Two, has all the sincerity and warmth of her professional album debut, the best-selling Julie Is Her Name,
from Liberty. An untested singer with uncompromising musical faith, an
unknown record company, sophisticated, tastefully presented standards
presented simply backed by just a bass and guitar — Julie Is Her Name
faced long odds of success. Yet it soared to become a best-selling hit.
Julie London rose to the Top 10 of every list of female vocalists.
And as to the cover, expect only top-notch reproduction for
our Analogue Productions reissue. Originally a single LP jacket, we've
upgraded to a gatefold incorporating more original photographs provided
by Universal.
Describing her smoky vocal style, London once said, "It's only a
thimbleful of a voice, and I have to use it close to a microphone. But
it is a kind of over-smoked voice, and it automatically sounds
intimate." A style inimitable, in our estimation.

GRADING. Grading is
visual only unless otherwise stated. I go by Goldmine standards and try to be
conservative. I will play grade on certain items only - it is just impossible
for me to play grade everything I put on EBAY.
RECORD GRADING:
MINT
(M) ---- It should be SEALED and appear to be brand new. Mint means STILL SEALED, NEVER PLAYED.
NEAR MINT (NM or NM-) ---- OPENED or UNSEALED. Otherwise mint but has one or two tiny
inconsequential flaws that do not affect play. Covers should be close to
perfect with minor signs of wear or age just becoming evident.
VERY GOOD PLUS (VG++ or strong VG++ or VG+++) The record or cover
that all but the most particular collector would say looks outstanding.
Cover may have insignificant manufacturers defect such as notch hole or
cut corner.
VERY GOOD PLUS (VG+ or strong VG+) The record has been handled and
played infrequently or very carefully. On a disc, there may be light
paper scuffs from sliding in and out of a sleeve or the vinyl or some of
the original luster may be lost. A slight scratch that did not affect
play would be acceptable for most collectors. Cover has most of its
original gloss and has been well taken care of. Minor seam splits may
be acceptable.
VERY GOOD (VG or strong VG) ---- Record displays visible signs of
handling and playing, such as loss of vinyl luster, light surface
scratches, groove wear and spindle trails. Some audible surface noise,
non-feelable marks that might or will affect the sound as mild
occasional surface noise or periodic pops/clicks. Usually a cover is VG
when one or more of these problems are evident: ring wear, seam splits,
bent corners, loss of gloss, stains, etc.
VERY GOOD- (VG- or G+)
Record will show signs same as VG with heavier wear including noticeable
groove wear and feelable marks that will likely pop or click. Popping
or clicking will be most evident through quieter passages. Record
should play all the way through, but may skip.
GOOD (G) ---- Well
played with little luster and significant surface noise. Despite
defects, record should still play all the way through without skipping,
but may skip. Several cover flaws will be apparent, but should not
obliterate the artwork. Filler copy until a better one can be found.
POOR
(P) ---- Any record or cover that does not qualify for the above "Good"
grading should be seen as Poor. Only the rarest of records should ever
be graded as Poor while the others should go to the trash heap.
DISCLAIMER. Due to
the number of frivolous
returns which were
unwarranted, and due to the
nature of sound recorded products that can be easily
copied, there will no
longer be a free return policy. I will charge a
$10.00 return fee for
all returns - this amount will be deducted
from the Paypal refund of the returned
item.
If item is truly
defective the entire purchase
amount
will be refunded as
long as the item is in the same condition as it was sent.
