SURPRISE This is a pretty dang good LP


For those of you who take a flyer or two when buying older, used LP's or, like me, are cleaning up a bunch you've had around for years and never really listen to on a good rig, I have a question. What are some that you thought "what the hey I'll give this a whirl" and been pleasantly surprised by BOTH the music and the sonics? Artist, title, label, and number, please. I will start with one I just cleaned up this evening:

WAR: "The World is a Ghetto" United Artist; UAS-5652

I would love to see a lot of repsonses to this thread in the interest of opening up the possibilities for all to enjoy some good, and WELL RECORDED music that they might otherwise ignore. If someone posts a title or artist that "just ain't your bag", please, keep it to yourself. I hate threads that descend into "I don't like what you like so you are wrong and so I will disparage your taste in music" drivel. Thanks

Side 1 Track 3 is a lovely version of Groovin'.

I think this is "well recorded" in the sense that I like it.

I look forward to the suggestions you receive here. God bless.
I received some LAST cleaning products recently. On a lark, I cleaned an old LP and it completely put some of my recent 180 gram purchases to shame. My daughter and I were jammin to Funkadelic's "Uncle Jam Wants You" Warner Brothers BSK 3371. Purchased new in the 70's.
A white vinyl 45 rpm 10" single of India Arie singing "Strength, Courage and Wisdom". It has "the gap" (clothing company) logo on one side and her picture on the blank/flip side (manufactured by Neverstop records).
