MARK RECORDS MC-1707 / STEREO / FIRST PRESSING / RELEASED IN 1978.
SOME OF THE USUAL STANDARDS ARE HERE, OF COURSE, BUT YOU’LL WANT THIS FOR A FEW EPIC JAMS… NOTABLY, THESE TEENAGER’S SUPER-COOL VERSION OF KISS’ “BETH” AND THEIR DOPE TAKE ON CHICAGO’S “COLOUR MY WORLD”... BUT, THERE’S MORE! ALSO THEIR 8TH GRADE FUNKINESS RULES ON A GROOVY VERSION OF VAN MCCOY’S “THE HUSTLE” AND A WICKED ARRANGEMENT OF SOMETHING CALLED “BACH IN ROCK”... THERE’S A VERSION HERE, TOO, OF BARRY MANILOW’S “COULD IT BE MAGIC” THAT MAKES THAT SONG ACTUALLY WORTH LISTENING TO. FINALLY, THEY DO A VERSION OF BURT BACHARACH’S “WHAT THE WORLD NEEDS NOW” WHICH’LL SERVE AS A FITTING TRIBUTE TO THE FALLEN MAESTRO… GROOVY STUFF!
VINYL AND JACKET ARE BOTH STRONG VG+ COPIES… JACKET’S GOT A COFFEE CUP RING ON IT, BUT C’EST LA VIE, YOU KNOW? IN GREAT SHAPE AND SOUNDS GREAT, TOO!
ALL REASONABLE OFFERS ENTERTAINED… DON’T BE SHY!
