Very good vinyl condition of four classic albums from legendary

American, singer and songwriter Garland Jeffreys, who traversed

The first album was his 1977 breakthrough LP ‘Ghost Writer’ with his

‘Rough and Ready’, ‘New York Skyline’, ‘Lift Me Up’ and ‘Spanish Town’.

The second album is the 1978 ‘One-Eyed Jack’ a brilliant record with guest
