Vinyl - a unsealed record that looks nearly flawless.Ĭover - may have light typical storage wear. Of course since the record is sealed we cannot guarantee there are no pressing flaws or minor warping, and since all the sealed records we sell are out of print, we cannot except returns or exchanges on sealed records that have been opened. Vinyl - only given to sealed records, or records we personally acquired new, opened them but never played. If this is a concern of yours you can contact us and ask us. NOTE: We do not grade or mention the condition of original printed inner sleeves (if the record has them) though we will often picture them if included. Occasionally we'll use a grade range (ie: VG / VG+) for either vinyl or cover if condition is borderline and hard to stick in one category. We encourage you to view all the pictures and read our comments on the conditions, as we find these to be more beneficial than a standard grade. With a partial play grading when deemed nessary.

She cocooned the audience in a cloak of mellowness and hit the big notes with neither strain not theatrics.Īt one stage, she told the audience that although many of her songs smack of the blues, she actually has a good sense of humour. It was hard not to be floored by how effortless her singing was. When she sang of love and loss and yearning, she made those feelings not just personal but resonant. Her voice was more than just distinctive it was emotive. Hearing her sing, one was reminded why she has lasted 45 years in show business. This was followed by her equally big chart-topper The Long Road.
Her famous hour-shaped figure sheathed in a shimmering skin-coloured mermaid gown, she got things off to a rousing start with one of her most famous hits, The Windy Season.
