Banks of the Ohio/ It's So Hard To Say Goodbye

This is a beautiful Near Mint copy with a drillhole, in its original Uni Records factory sleeve. Here's a rare copy of Newton-John's second chart single, which barely charted at all. This is a cover of a 1936 Country song originally recorded by the Blue Sky Boys. After this, it would be 2 years before Olivia became a household name with her string of mid-1970's hits starting with "Let Me Be There." Note: I've graded the audio down to reflect underlying surface noise and a few pops, but still a joy to listen to.
