David Carroll - Perfidia
A quintessential example of a 25 cent rummage shop record: An album nobody wants until someone wants an album nobody wants, which could be never. Any charm at all it might have (the organ & female voices save it for me) probably is enhanced by it being scratchy & in mono.
I guessed the date of the LP as 1961-62 because some of the keyboard parts sound like a Univox or Clavioline, forerunners of the synth given renewed popularity in songs such as "Runaway" & "Telstar."
