Vinyl plays with occasional light-crackles (play-graded). Cover looks great; a few creases near edges; light-scuffing, discoloration with darker discoloration spots, and surface impressions (front/back); surface abrasion near top-left on front. Inner-sleeve is original (photo/credits); creases along seams. Spine is mostly easy-to-read with mild-wear. Some shelf-wear along top/bottom-edge and corners. Opening is crisp with signs of light use and divots. (Not a cut-out.)
Using his touring band, which included keyboard player Mike Finnigan and guitarist Jim Krueger, Dave Mason turned in a strong pop/rock collection on his second, self-titled Columbia album. Show Me Some Affection was one of those songs that should have been a hit single, Mason recut a fuller version of Every Woman, originally heard on It's Like You Never Left, and the album also included Mason's version of Bob Dylan's All Along the Watchtower," in an arrangement patterned after the one by Jimi Hendrix, on which Mason had played six years earlier.
