Still in ORIGINAL SHRINK-WRAP (opened). Vinyl plays nicely (play-graded). Cover looks great; a couple creases near edges; sections of shrink missing/torn in places, a couple surface impressions, and no scuffing (front/back). Inner-sleeve is original (A&M ads); bottom seam partially split. Spine is easy-to-read with mild-wear where shrink is torn. Little shelf-wear along top-edge; heavier wear along bottom-edge and corners. Opening is crisp with signs of moderate use and divots. Mid 70's pressing with gold and silver label. Label variation. (Notch in bottom-right.)
Liza Minnelli is an energetic collection released in 1968. This record captures an ebullient artist four years before her success in Cabaret. The album contains a solid collection of songs by famous singer/songwriters, including three by Randy Newman (The Debutante's Ball, Happyland, and So Long Dad) and one from John Lennon and Paul McCartney (Revolver's For No One). One of the standout tracks is The Look of Love, written by the team of Hal David and Burt Bacharach. Interesting, too, is the inclusion of (The Tragedy Of) Butterfly McHeart, written by Minnelli's then-husband, Peter Allen, and You'd Better Sit Down, Kids, written by Sony Bono. A good mixture of Broadway numbers and singer/songwriter material.
