Description

Offered for sale is an original U.S. stereo red vinyl promotional copy of Tall Tales! Legends and Nonsense by the New Christy Minstrels.

This album was issued on red vinyl both mono and stereo; the stereo version is quite rare.

About this copy: This copy of Tall Tales! Legends and Nonsense is a 1963 U.S. stereo pressing on the Columbia label.

The cover is VG, with quite a bit of edge wear, especially on the spine.  There is a sticker on the back cover that says “For Demonstration Use Only – Not for Sale.”

The red vinyl disc is VG+ with a couple of light marks on each side.  There are a few spindle marks on the labels.

It’s a fairly clean disc that plays well, and is the only red vinyl copy we’ve ever had for sale.

Background: Released in 1963, Tall Tales! Legends and Nonsense was the third album by the New Christy Minstrels, a group that at various times had Barry McGuire (on this LP), Kim Carnes, Gene Clark, and Kenny Rogers as members.

Allmusic.com gave Tall Tales! Legends and Nonsense a 4 1/2 star review:

By the time that the acoustic folk collective known as the New Christy Minstrels released their third long-player, Tall Tales! Legends and Nonsense (1963), the band had been together under the direction of Randy Sparks in several different configurations for less than a year. During that time, however, they had established themselves as a formidable aggregate of collective musicianship. Their multi-faceted talents were likewise prominently featured during the first season of the highly rated weekly network musical/variety Andy Williams Show. Their slightly offbeat brand of innocuous and infectious folky fun is at the heart of this release.
