LEON WARE


Musical Massage


(US Gordy, G6-976S1, 1976)

Ideal for collectors!! SUPER RARE FIRST PRESSING - SEALED & UNOPENED!! I have been hanging onto this for nearly 10 years now... I feel now is the time to pass it on!! I have my own copy so left this sealed!!

I'm sure you all know the deal with this album but I'll tell the story anyway... Leon Ware was a good friend of Marvin Gaye's and co-wrote and produced Marvin's tremendous I Want You album... This album was made during the same time with Marvin's help (he even contributed backing vocals on Holiday). Allegedly Marvin talked Berry Gordy into releasing this album (who, ever the difficult man, took his time deciding) and when he did, he barely promoted it so the album virtually sank without a trace!! Now it is recognised for the true genius that it is. It is really one of the finest soul albums ever produced and one of the earliest examples of modern soul - every track is flawless, you really can't go wrong with it!!


SEALED!! 

Shrink is half split at opening edge where cut-out notch (see pics) - the bottom half of the opening edge is still sealed so the record has definitely never left its sleeve!! Small tear in shrink on back, small corner bump, brand new otherwise!!
