■　コンディション　■
A- / A
ジャケット：背表紙中央部わずかなスレ、下辺わずかなスレ。ぴんとした美品です。
ディスク：レーベルは微細なヒゲがほんの少し。盤面はわずかな紙スレ程度の美品です。
マトリクスはA1/B1。
パテントNo.入り内袋付属。

ボニー・レイトの75年5作目「ホーム・プレート」。
あい変らず最高の選曲。アラン・トゥーサン、ジョン・ホール、ジーン・クラーク、ビル・ペイン、エリック・カズ等の曲を取り上げて、2ndのころと比べると幾分ポップに決めてくれます。
バック陣も、ジャクソン・ブラウン、エミルー・ハリス、ジョン・ヘラルド、ビル・ペイン、ジョン・セバスチャン、J.D.サウザー、フレッド・タケット、驚きのトム・ウェイツ等々、有名どころ満載の豪華さで文句なし。
見落とされがちですがよいアルバムです。

英国盤。マト1の初期プレス。美品です。
