Description

ARTIST: The Nutmegs, Picture Sleeve EP 45, 1960
LABEL: Herald, HEP 452
SONGS: Story Untold / Betty Lou / Comin' Home / Whispering Sorrows

Original pressing of the Nutmegs' only EP, with the classic hit, Story Untold–a song right up there with Earth Angel as one of the most thrilling and beautiful doo-wop ballads ever. Singer Leroy Griffin had an incredible voice–it was the sound of a desperate angel!

I have seen a later version of this record with a different label. This is the original label, yellow with "Herald" in black script.

Picture sleeve has a fabulous photo of the group wearing electric blue suits in front of a fuchsia background! The front cover is in great condition with some superficial scuffing and light surface grime (see photo). Back cover is almost spotless. No rips or seam splits.

Except for some superficial smudging, the record vinyl looks to be virtually unplayed. I don't see any scratches. Side one label has some wrinkling and some scraping where a sticker may have been pulled off. Side two is pristine.

A true classic by one of the greatest doo-wop groups ever. This record, with its cover, is very hard to find–especially in such fine shape.
