Vinyl plays nicely (play-graded). Cover looks good; creases near edges; moderate scuffing, tiny surface abrasions, and surface impressions (front/back). Inner-sleeve is original (generic white). Spine is worn and hard to read. Shelf-wear along top-edge, heavier wear along bottom-edge. Wear to corners. Opening has signs of use and divots. (Notch in bottom-left.)
Barbara Mandrell Live, by the American country music singer Barbara Mandrell, spawned two hit singles, I Was Country When Country Wasn't Cool and Wish You Were Here. I Was Country When Country Wasn't Cool became Mandrell's signature song, and a return to her roots, peaking at No. 1 on the Country charts in 1981. The song features an uncredited appearance by George Jones. Wish You Were Here peaked at No. 2 on the Country charts, and also appeared on the Adult Contemporary charts, reaching No. 40. The album includes cover versions of popular songs, including The Battle Hymn of the Republic and the Hank Williams' hit Hey Good Lookin', and closes with a full-length vocal version of Country Girl, the theme song to Mandrell's 1980-82 television show, Barbara Mandrell and the Mandrell Sisters. This album was one of Mandrell's biggest-selling albums in the United States, receiving a "Gold" certification by the RIAA, after the album moved 500,000 copies. This is only one of two albums by Mandrell that received any certification by the RIAA in the United States. The album peaked at No. 4 on the Top Country Albums chart (her highest peak position on that chart), as well as No. 86 on the Billboard 200.
