Import from Europe. Made in Germany. Vinyl plays nicely (play-graded). Cover looks great; a few creases near edges; light-scuffing and surface impressions (front/back); tiny surface abrasions on back. Inner-sleeve is original (artwork/credits) with faint writing near song titles. Spine is easy-to-read with mild-wear. Minor shelf-wear along top-edge, heavier wear along bottom-edge and corners. Top-edge has text and is easy-to-read. Opening is crisp with signs of light use and divots. (Not a cut-out.)

Seven years after Sheila E. burst upon the scene with her Top Ten single The Glamorous Life, the talented percussionist's fourth release, Sex Cymbal, reflects the sound of successful, late-'80s artists like Janet Jackson and Paula Abdul. It's a solid mix of pop/R&B ballads like the pretty "Loverboy and more dance-oriented tracks. The title track is a slinky come-on and Sheila E. leads her band through a horn-laden version of Lady Marmalade. The musicianship is not-surprisingly strong and there are a couple cool instrumental jams. Sex Cymbal is a sure-footed, groove-oriented album. The album reached No. 56 on US R&B charts.
