Without duplicating anything from their first album (1957's The Fabulous Cadillacs, actually a collection of sides from various 1954-1957 singles), the Cadillacs' second LP mixed seven tracks from 1954-1957 45s with five songs that made their first appearance on this long-player. It may not have anything on the order of their classic hit "Speedoo," but it's actually a consistent and superior doo wop album, with a few cuts that rate among the group's best. Prominent among them is the infectiously exuberant "My Girlfriend," one of the scarce non-hit doo wop tunes that does actually sound like it could have been a hit, not just something that specialists say should have been a hit. The sumptuously sung "Gloria" is probably roundly considered the Cadillacs' best slow ballad, and "Window Lady" is another effective slowie enhanced by gospel-ish organ, even if it was always fun and fast stompers like "Don't Be Mad with My Heart" that were going to be the group's selling points.

·                               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 STRONG VERY GOOD+(+) . 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)          The record is pressed on a beautiful, thick, inflexible vinyl, which was usually used for the first or very early pressings. Usually, the sound on such thick vinyl pressings is full-bodied, vivid, and even dramatic. Do not expect to obtain such a majestic analog sound from a digital recording!

 

(c)           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 a partially split top seam (between 6 and 8 inches  /15 to 20 centimeters); This split seam was delicately taped by the previous owner with a piece of transparent scotch tape

 

-        Cover has a partially split bottom seam (more than 10 inches / 22 centimeters); This split seam was delicately taped by the previous owner with a piece of transparent scotch tape

 

-         Cover has some visible fraying/tattering on all three seams

 

-         Cover has a tape residue (yellowish discoloration from the removed piece of old and aged scotch tape)

 

-        A visible water stain affects the area about 1 inch wide along the spine; there is no structural damage to the cover, and both cardboard base and paper slick are intact.

 

-         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 2  (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.

 

-         Cover shows some light yellowing on both sides, apparently from aging   (nothing significant).

 

-         Cover has a light "wrinkle" (crease)  in one of the corners.

 

-         Cover has all four corners slightly worn / dinged / bent. (nothing significant)

 

-         Back cover has a few yellowish dust speckles scattered here and there (these tiny spots are not overly obtrusive or distracting)

 

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 mold or mildew spots

-        No stickers or labels

-        No water damage

-        No razor marks, scratches, pressure marks, lines, streaks, or  cuts.

-        No warping

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

-        No glue traces or wax residue.

-        No bar codes

-        No RIAA stamps or stickers.
