As Time Goes By

LP (Item 645863) Forest Bay, 1976 — Condition: Sealed
A rare post-Warner Brothers album from Harpers Bizarre – but done in a style that's still quite similar to their late 60s classics! Although the album's from the mid 70s, it's got a sweetly conveyed style that's focused strongly on the group's warm harmony style – and which mostly features, as before, songs and themes from years past – recast into a fresher, hipper LA-kind of style. The approach still has all the innocent charm of the group's key Warner albums – and the record's surprisingly free of AOR slickness or overdone production touches – and instead just relies on strong vocal harmonies and warmly jazzy arrangements to carry the sound. Titles include "Speak Low", "Banana King Louie", "That's The Way It Was", "Lullaby Of Broadway", "Society Strut", "Every Night", "Beechwood 4 5789", "Cowboy", and "As Time Goes By".  © 1996-2024, Dusty Groove, Inc.

Sealed

This is what it says, that the record is still held fast in shrink-wrap. We tend to be pretty suspicious about these things, so if the shrink-wrap doesn't look original, or if the record seems to have undergone some damage over time, we'll probably take it out of the wrapper to ensure that it's in good shape — which is why we don't have more of these. In some cases the shrink-wrap may be torn in spots, but if it's not possible the record has been taken out and played, the record will still qualify as "Sealed".

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.

Talking Heads

Little Creatures
Sire, 1985. Very Good+
A record that's almost a back to basics effort for the Talking Heads – produced with maybe a bit more crossover appeal than some of their early records, yet one that also shakes off some of the larger funk, soul, and global instrumentation that was part of their sound in the early 80s!

GNP, 1968. Near Mint-
One of the great fake live albums of the 60s – a set that promises to be a concert performance from the title and cover, but which actually just features The Seeds playing live together in the studio!

Simon & Garfunkel/Dave Grusin

Graduate – Original Soundtrack
Columbia, 1968. Very Good+
A tremendous little soundtrack – even if you've seen it a million times! Simon & Garfunkel always had a really dark quality to their music, but it never seemed to show as much on the pop charts as it did when used brilliantly by Mike Nichols in this important film. Their tunes emerge in ... LP, Vinyl record album
