Vinyl plays with crackles and some clicks (play-graded). Cover looks great, a few creases near edges; no scuffing (front/back). Inner-sleeve is original (generic white). Spine is unbroken, clean and easy-to-read. Minor shelf-wear along top/bottom-edge and corners. Opening is crisp with signs of light use and divots. Slight label variation. (Not a cut-out.)
The Waltz Queen, by Patti Page, was issued under the title Waltzes Bring Memories with a different cover as MG-20049. It didn't sell so the new title and cover were created but the same catalog number used. The mono version in its original release included one image of the artist on the cover. Billboard reviewed the album on March 17, 1958, saying: “Exceptionally strong packaging. The gal has never been better than in this creamy, nostalgic selection of three-beater favorites like What’ll I Do, Till We Meet Again, The Boy Next Door, etc. Excellent backings by Vic Schoen and ork. Several bands here are worthy of singles exposure and the entire set should set a brisk pace at the counter.” This album should not be confused with an album of the same name released by Mercury's Wing Records subsidiary in 1960 under catalog numbers MGW-12121 and SRW-16121, with all different songs.
