1970 - THE PERSUASIONS - ACAPPELLA - FRANK ZAPPA DISCOVERED THESE GUYS AND THIS IS THEIR FIRST ALBUM AND FIRST PRESSING ON FRANK ZAPPA'S STRAIGHT RECORDS LABEL - RS 6394 - INCLUDES A HEAVY CARDBOARD FOLD-OPEN ALBUM COVER AND THE ORIGINAL STRAIGHT RECORDS PRINTED INNER SLEEVE - WORTH GETTING JUST FOR THEIR RENDITION OF OLD MAN RIVER ALONE. ORIGINALLY FROM THE 1927 MUSICAL SHOW BOAT, BUT PERHAPS THE MOST FAMOUS VERSION WAS SUNG BY THE GREAT PAUL ROBESON FOR THE 1936 FILM ADAPTATION OF SHOW BOAT. I THINK THESE GUYS KICKED PAUL'S ASS, BUT IT DID TAKE 5 OF THEM TO DO IT. SO IF YOU DON'T WANT THIS FIRST PRESSING LP GO BUY A CD OR SOMETHING AND CHECK IT OUT. JERRY LAWSON THEIR LEAD SINGER DIED JULY 10TH 2019. BOTH SIDES OF THE RECORD SOUND GREAT. IT'S A BEAUTIFUL RECORD, GREAT FIRST PRESSING WITH ABSOLUTELY NO SCRATCHES AND WITH SOME SMALL FAINT SCUFFS THAT YOU HAVE REALLY LOOK FOR TO FIND. HEAVY CARDBOARD FOLD-OPEN ALBUM COVER WITH SOME RING AND EDGE WEAR. NO SEAM SPLITS, TAPE OR WRITING. CHECK OUT ALL OF THE PHOTOS THAT SHOWS ALL OF THE DETAILS OF THE COVER WHERE YOU CAN SCAN EVERY INCH AND JUDGE FOR YO'SELF. NOW THE ORIGINAL STRAIGHT RECORDS INNER SLEEVE DOES HAVE SOME SEAM SPLITS IN THE CENTER OF THE SEAMS. BUT YOU'LL BE THRILLED AND DELIGHTED TO DISCOVER THAT THE RECORD COMES IN A PLASTIC INSIDE OF PAPER INNER SLEEVE SO RE-INSERTION BACK IN THE ORIGINAL INNER SLEEVE WON'T BE NECESSARY. BUT WAIT..., THERE'S MORE..., BECAUSE DUE TO THE FACT THAT WEEZE TIGHT, I'M GONNA GIVE YEZ A PLASTIC OUTER SLEEVE ABSOLUTELY FREE. SO WADDA YEZ WAITIN' FOR, HUH?
