Repressing. Digitally remastered reissue of Diamond's overlooked album, originally released four decades ago. Velvet Gloves And Spit, recorded in New York before Diamond had perfected the signature sound of his subsequent hits, was his first for new label Uni and appeared in 1968 to little acclaim. However, following the single success of 'Shilo' in 1970, the song was tacked onto the album and it was reissued in a new sleeve. Stylistically, the album covers the whole spectrum of contemporary sounds from romantic ballads to tongue-in-cheek social commentary to brash Pop gems not unlike his mid-'60s Brill Building output. Rev-Ola.
