Song For My Lady
LP (Item 2161) Columbia, 1975 — Condition: Very Good
Related searches
Excellent jazzy soul stuff by one of our favorite singers of all time! Jon's in wonderful form here – working in arrangements that are a bit smoother and more modern soul oriented than his earlier work for RCA, but handled in such a way that they only bring out more richness in his incredible vocals! The album includes Jon's sublime version of "Maiden Voyage" – one of the mellow soul classics of the 70s – plus originals like "Soul Mate", "Creole Lady", "Follow Your Heart", and the haunting "Song For My Lady". Also includes a great version of "Dindi"! © 1996-2024, Dusty Groove, Inc.
Very Good
- Vinyl can have some dirt, but nothing major.
- May not shine under light, but should still be pretty clean, and not too dirty.
- May have a number of marks (5 to 10 at most), and obvious signs of play, but never a big cluster of them, or any major mark that would be very deep. Most marks should still not click under a fingernail.
- May not look near perfect, but should play fairly well, with slight surface noise, and the occasional click in part of a song, but never throughout a whole song or more.
- This is clearly a copy that was played by someone a number of times, but which could also be a good "play copy" for someone new.
Additional Marks & Notes
If something is noteworthy, we try to note it in the comments — especially if it is an oddity that is the only wrong thing about the record. This might include, but isn't limited to, warped records, tracks that skip, cover damage or wear as noted above, or strictly cosmetic flaws.

'Bout LoveColumbia, 1978. Near Mint-
One of Wither's most underrated sets, a nice effort from the latter part of his Columbia career.

Aretha Franklin's Greatest HitsColumbia, Mid 60s. Very Good+
Despite the title, this isn't really Aretha's greatest hits – as it includes no numbers from the Atlantic years – but it is a pretty good selection of Aretha's earlier work for Columbia, and features some real gems that should have been bigger hits than they were. Titles include "R ... LP, Vinyl record album

Walter Jackson
Tell Me Where It HurtsColumbia, 1981. Near Mint-
Sweet smooth soul from Walter Jackson – recording here in his later years, with a style that's a lot more modern than his classic 60s recordings for Okeh, but still surprisingly nice, and a great evolution of his "Iceman" soul sound!

Best Of Earth Wind & Fire Vol 1Columbia, Mid 70s. Very Good Gatefold
Fantastic stuff through and through – and almost a "best of" best of collection from the 70s!

Keep SmilingSire, 1983. Near Mint-
It takes a record like this one to remind us just what a magical crossover time the post-disco, post-punk days of the early 80s could be!
