This is the legendary soul crooner's mega-giga-super-tough-to-find 1963 album everyone wants to have. According to the legend, Jimmy Scott is Madonna's favorite singer (OK, Jimmy, we won't hold it against you). So, explore the beauties and joys of this incredible, unusual, spiritual voice. The original album has been produced by Ray Charles and recorded for his short-lived fledgling "Tangerine" label in 1963 and, after its first and only press run was withdrawn from the stores under the legal threat from Savoy records, never saw the light of day again - in any way, manner or format – until Rhino records reissued it on compact disc some 40 years later. Track listing: They say it's wonderful - I wish I didn't love you so - There is no greater love - If I should lose you - Why try to change me now - I am getting sentimental over you - Someone to watch over me - How deep is the ocean - I didn't know what time it was - Sunday, Monday or always.

·                               CONDITION:

·                               RECORD

(IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded!; we grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight)

(a)            WE GRADE THE VINYL AS VERY GOOD+ (VG+) . CAUTION: The vinyl is NOT MINT or NEAR MINT, but is nevertheless in a very nice and clean condition. There are some surface marks and abrasions, mostly light and superficial, although some may be longer than 1.1/4 inches (1 inch = 2.5 centimeters)

(b)            Stereo pressing of this title is much rarer, and by far more preferable to its mono counterpart. The mix is more graphic, the sound resolution more precise, and the channel separation (which does not exist on mono version) adds a whole new dimension to the music. Also, the stereo mixes are (by definition) somewhat different than on the mono version. We estimate that mono copies of this album outnumber stereo copies by a ratio of at least 10:1.

(c)             The record comes in the original stock inner sleeve.

(d)            Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording!!!

·       COVER

THE COVER IS ABOUT VERY GOOD+(+)

The following flaws or imperfections are noted on the cover:

-         Cover has some light ring wear (nothing significant); On the scale from 1 to 10 (1 being the least, and 10 being the most severe), we assess the severity of ring wear as 3 (front side) and 4 (back side).

-         Back cover has circular tarnish (grayish, dust-covered sections, which closely follow the contour of the record), probably caused by friction or by rubbing against other covers during the storage. The tarnish is similar in appearance to a common ring wear, but, UNLIKE ring wear, these grayish areas may be possible to clean up with a minor effort and with a right cleansing solution.

-         The cover has a small scratch mark on the back side (nothing significant)

-         Cover has a partially split top seam (between 6 and 8 inches /15 to 20 centimeters)

-         Cover has some fraying/wear along the upper seam and bottom seam

-         Cover has a few tiny wrinkles along the spine

-         Cover shows some light yellowing on back side, apparently from aging.

NO OTHER IMPERFECTIONS ON THE COVER:

-         No cut-out (drill) holes.

-         No cut-out corners

-         No saw-marks or indents

-         No writing

-         No stamps

-         No peel-off marks

-         No stains

-         No mold or mildew spots

-         No stickers or labels

-         No water damage

-         No warping

-         No wax, glue, paint or liquid drops on the cover
