Bert Sommer starred in the original production of HAIR and performed Simon & Garfunkle's "America" at Woodstock.  He sang sweetly and made only five albums in his short life.  Here are three of them, all unplayed:
1.  Inside Bert Sommer, 1970 - Released on the obscure Eleuthera label, the vinyl is in gorgeous condition.  The white background gatefold is extremely clean, the front & back of the album have very slight ringwear -- please see photos #2-3.  Eleuthera did not create true promo albums as far as I know, so this radio station copy has a slit in the lower right corner.   2.  Bert Sommer, 1970 -  Released on Buddah, the vinyl on this one is also in gorgeous condition.  Jacket cardboard is so stiff and new in appearance, I did not want to fully flatten the gatefold to photograph it.
3.  Bert Sommer, 1977 -  Released on Capitol Records, this one is still factory sealed with punch hole.
Shipping is via Media Mail to U.S. buyers only.  Signature required.
More about the collection:   All albums in this and my other listings are from my personal collection dating back to a long-ago career in rock radio.  Record sales are not my livelihood, so rather than attempt to grade them using a system in which I have no expertise, I prefer to let the photos and my honest descriptions tell the story.  If they're described as unplayed, it's because I never played them and there've been no other owners.
