DONOVAN - Wear Your Love Like Heaven (180g Audiophile Vinyl LP, 2017, Import)
Review from another site: Separately released in the U.S. as the pop record from 1967's double-LP A Gift From a Flower to a GardenWear Your Love Like Heaven stands on its own as one of the brightest, most pleasant works Donovan ever recorded. The title track and "Oh Gosh" were the only nods to the charts (and, tellingly, the only songs produced by Mickie Most). For once in Donovan's career, the remainders far outshone the singles, with brisk, breezy productions and the thoughtful playing of an actual band behind Donovan -- usually just bass, keyboards, and soft, whisking drums or bongos. Donovan's voice is better than ever, playful and unassuming on romps like "Mad John's Escape," "Skip-A-Long Sam," and "Oh Gosh," while expressive and controlled for the slower material. He also makes evocative folkie nostalgia work much better than it should on "Sun" and "Little Boy in Corduroy," helped by the breathy flute playing of Harold McNair. - Allmusic
This is a high-quality audiophile Speaker's Corner pressing.  As they explain on their website: "In our re-releases it is our aim to faithfully reproduce the original intentions of the musicians and recording engineers which, however, could not be realized at the time due to technical limitations. Faithfulness to the original is our top priority, not the interpretation of the original: there is no such thing as a “Speakers Corner Sound”. Naturally, the best results are obtained when the original master is used. Therefore we always try to locate these and use them for cutting. Should this not be possible, – because the original tape is defective or has disappeared, for example – we do accept a first-generation copy. But this remains an absolute exception for us."  We have every reason to believe you will be very happy with the result.
