A scarce and soulful private-press release, Plain and Simple by Frank E. Jeffries Jr. is a beautifully understated album that lives up to its title. With a pristine, near-unplayed vinyl copy and only minor, clearly documented sleeve flaws, this example is an excellent choice for collectors of rare gospel, soul, and private-press LPs.
