JESS & JAMES: Second LP

Original 1970 LP from HOLLAND on:
PALETTE Records#MPB S-3290

Tracks : Straight man / Mrs. Davis / Perdition man / Lip service / A passing car b/w She's a woman / Skating / James stuff

Rare 1970 original second lp of the Portuguese duet based in Belgium featuring Antonio and Fernando Lameirinhas (alias Tony & Wando Lam) helped by Scott Bradford and Stu Martin, they were basically the very same people who’ll put out the fantastic in-demand "Free Pop Electronic Concept".
Apart from the typical white-boy soul numbers they were famed for (best heard on their first album) this lp includes nice moves into psych and early prog territories. Unlike their debut, here the tracks are longer and give space to instrumental solo and interplay. A typical product from the end of the Sixties. Dutch LP by the Portuguese resident in Belgium duo Jess & James backed by the great J.J.Band, powerful mod/blue eyed soul LP, all the side 1 tunes are (now) classic soul scorchers.

VG: (Very Good=The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratches, nothing really serious).
G: (Good=played a lot, surface noises in the quieter moments, no jumps, skips, hisses, etc.. Still a good copy for djing)

EX: (Excellent=has no creases, folds, seam splits or any other noticeable similar defect).
VG (Very good=will have some slight wear, lightly turn-up corners, decent writing on or a slight seam-split).
