- Bailey, Pearl-Sings for Adults Only- LP- Mono-R25016 - 1959 release, white label with colored spokes, 1st pressing, excellent swinging jazz vocal album with big band directed by jazz great Don Redman! Looks at 1st glance like a novelty album, caption on fromt cover reads: "Performance of this album RESTRICTED from airplay", this however was merely a ploy to entice the public into buying something forbidden! some of the songs are mildly risque at best: "Legalize My Name", "I Wanna Get Married", and "Let's Do It", handsome glossy cover is totally clean in original shrink wrap, but does have 2" seam split at bottom right, depicts Pearl amid a pile of furs, disc looks unused and plays mint!
