Clyde McPhatter Live at the Apollo album signed and inscribed on the back cover in blue ballpoint, “Nick, A good drummer, some day you’ll make it big. Clyde.” Scattered toning and damp staining to both covers, edge wear and dings, back cover peeling at lower left corner, and scattered creases, otherwise very good condition. The record is included.
