Laura Nyro Promo-Only Mono Radio Issue Eli & the 13th Confession LP NEAR MINT Welcome to our sale...
We are offering a rarely seen, not issued to the public, Radio Only MONO mix of LAURA NYRO'S 2nd LP, titled "Eli & The 13th Confession". Issued to the public in 1967 this is the promotional-only mono mix sent only to AM radio for broadcast purposes. Columbia Catalog number CS 9626.
This is an original U.S. pressing, not a bootleg or counterfeit.
Cover Condition: The record is still in its original shrink wrap. The ring wear that you see in the photos is on the outer plastic wrap and not on the cover. The cover is MINT-.
Record Condition: The record looks as though it may have been played once. There are a couple of very light whispy lines on the vinyl surface (caused from the sleeve) that will not affect play. Over all MINT-
Also included is the rare lyric sheet.
This LP is much rarer than the alternate cover version of "New York Tendaberry", which goes for mega bucks.
This is one of the rarest MONO Radio LPs ever produced.
A little about this Lp and Laura...
Nyro peaked early, and Eli and the Thirteenth Confession, her second album, to many, remains her best! It's not only because it contains the original versions of no less than three songs that were big hits for other artists: "Sweet Blindness" (covered by the 5th Dimension), "Stoned Soul Picnic" (also covered by the 5th Dimension), and "Eli's Comin'" (done by Three Dog Night). It's not even just because those three songs are so outstanding. It's because the album as a whole is so outstanding, with its invigorating blend of blue-eyed soul, New York pop, and early confessional singer/songwriting. Nyro sang of love, inscrutably enigmatic romantic daredevils, getting drunk, lonely women, and sensual desire with an infectious joie de vivre. The arrangements superbly complemented the material with lively brass, wailing counterpoint backup vocals, and Nyro's own ebullient piano.

Don't miss a rare chance to acquire an original rare copy of this LP that will continue to increase in value.
Many thanks!
Thanks for looking, give it a good home.
