If You Could Read My Mind/ Poor Little Allison

What a gorgeous song... ! Canadian folk-singer Gordon Lightfoot had been doing his thing, mostly up north, for almost a decade before he cracked the U.S. Bilozoard Hot 100 with this single, also his first Top 10 hit. I was wowed by Lightfoot back in 1970, and this haunting love song still wows me after umteen-zillion spins. Note: This beautiful copy has Mint labels and comes in a vintage Reprise Records factory sleeve. The audio grades Near Mint, reflecting an occasional moment when light surface noise is audible. The label has a tiny star stamped on it that I almost missed. (This scan is a representative image from our archives.)
