Description: A VINYL LP COPY OF ELAINE PAIGE, a self-titled album by Britain's foremost stage star. The disc is absolutely MINT CONDITION -- the cardboard jacket shows edge wear from von life on attic shelf. Inner sleeve with lyrics near mint.(see 2nd photo for track listing) buyer reviews:This album is just beautiful. Not one of them is hard to listen to. They are all unforgettable. Well worth buying!Britain's finest theatrical singer-actress (with a similar type of voice to Barbra Streisand) originally became famous as the leading actress in the West End musical, Evita. Her singing career didn't really get established until the release of her 1983 album, Stages, but while I regard that as her best original album, this one (from a year earlier) has much to commend it.Tim Rice wrote many of the lyrics, even adding an extra verse to If you don't want my love, written by John Prine. John was impressed by Elaine's recording (so am I) but not by Tim messing around with his song, although I like the extra verse. Tim also wrote lyrics for the Paul McCartney instrumental, Hot as sun. I don't know what Paul thought of that. Tim didn't change the old Everly Brothers classic, So sad to watch good love go bad, or the obscure Paul Simon song, How the heart approaches what it yearns, both of which Elaine sings superbly. Elsewhere, there are many excellent songs, my favorite being The Second Time.
