1970 - THE PERSUASIONS - ACAPPELLA - FRANK ZAPPA DISCOVERED THESE GUYS AND THIS IS THEIR FIRST ALBUM WHICH WAS PRESSED ON FRANK ZAPPA'S STRAIGHT RECORDS LABEL - HOWEVER AS WAS THE RARE CASE OF OTHER FRANK ZAPPA STRAIGHT RECORDS PRESSINGS, THIS ONE WAS PRESSED AT THE PLANT ON ZAPPA'S OTHER BIZARRE RECORDS BLUE LABEL -RS-6394. NOTICE WHERE THE WARNER / REPRISE RECORDS LOGO WAS PRINTED OVER THE SONG TITLES ON THE LABELS. INCLUDES THE HEAVY CARDBOARD GATE FOLD ALBUM COVER THAT DOES HAVE THE CORRECT STRAIGHT RECORDS LOGO PRINTED ON THE FRONT AND INSIDE OF THE GATE FOLD. EITHER LABEL RECORD IS 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 RARE 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 THAT PLAYS REALLY NICE. NO SCRATCHES. NO HAIRLINES AND ANY FAINT TINY SCUFFS ARE FEW AND WON'T BE FOUND UNLESS YOU REALLY LOOK FOR THEM. HEAVY CARDBOARD GATE FOLD ALBUM COVER HAS CUT CORNER, SOME LIGHT RING WEAR AND A FEW SPLITS ON THE SPINE. SOME EDGE WEAR ON THE SEAMS, BUT IN THE CASE OF THE SEAMS I DON'T SEE ANYWHERE WHERE THEY SPLIT THRU. THE RECORD COMES IN A HIGH QUALITY ANTI-STATIC COLLECTOR'S TYPE OF INNER SLEEVE THAT WILL KEEP THIS GREAT CONDITION RECORD SCUFF FREE FOR THE NEXT 50 YEARS.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?
