WIKIPEDIA
That's Just the Way I Want to Be is a 1970 (see 1970 in music) album by Blossom Dearie. It is noteworthy among her recordings in that, for the first time, the focus is on Dearie as a songwriter with her co-writing nine of the album's 12 tracks). She took the opportunity to pay tribute to some of her well-known contemporaries: John Lennon (the object of her praise in "Hey John"), Georgie Fame and Dusty Springfield. The last song, "I Like London In The Rain", contains an opening breakbeat that has been sampled by hip hop producers.

The OLAY  name on the back was written by RUTH OLAY who was a great Jazz singer herself. I recently purchased a couple of records from her personal Lp collection.

Grading

 

NM:   virtually no signs of use. Should play like new. / Cover is still  in shrink.

VG++  a couple small only surface lines that shouldn’t affect sound. /Cover almost perfect.

VG+  Used but not abused. Some mostly surface lines. If any audible imperfections they should be relatively minimal.

The cover will be in good shape but there will be some signs of use.

VG   Might have a number of only surface lines or may have a  small scratch. Some background sound but  still  enjoyable.

In this condition any significant defects  will be noted.

VG-  It will have significant background sound from various defects but music always be quite audible above it. Or it may have a scratch.

In this condition any significant defects  will be noted.
