For auction is a lot of 3 great LPs by American singer-songwriter, multi Grammy winner and Rock & Roll Hall of Famer, James Taylor. All are in VG or better condition and would be a fine addition to any collection. Please see pics and let me know if you have any questions or if you would like to see more photos. Below are details on the 3 records in this lot:

Mud Slide Slim And The Blue Horizon His third studio album released in 1971. Features his famous cover of Carol King’s, “You’ve Got A Friend”, his only US #1 hit. It also earned Taylor one of his six career Grammy’s. The album peaked at #2 on the Billboard 200 album chart. This copy is a 1st press and is play graded VG. Some light visible surface marks but nothing deep that can be felt. Plays with some mild background noise of static at times but never overwhelming. No skips or jumps. Side 2 plays closer to VG+. Gatefold cover is also in VG condition. Minor shelf wear on corners and seams. A quarter inch split in top right of open edge. Price sticker and pen mark on back, lower right. Light ring wear. Original WB inner included and used. VG+ with no splits. A very good listeners copy!
