This 7-inch single features South African singer Virginia Lee performing two well-known country-pop standards. Lee was one of South Africa's most popular vocalists during the 1960s and 1970s, admired for her clear, warm voice and her ability to interpret both international hits and local material. Her recordings often bridged easy listening, country, and pop, making them staples on South African radio of the era.
"Almost Persuaded," originally a major country hit in the United States, became one of the songs frequently covered by international vocalists, while "The Twelfth of Never" is a romantic ballad that has been interpreted by many artists over the years. Virginia Lee's versions bring a polished, orchestral pop style typical of South African studio productions of the period.
This pressing appears on the Trutone Records label, an important South African record company responsible for many local pop and easy-listening releases in the mid-20th century. Trutone singles are part of the documented history of South Africa's recording industry and are regularly collected by local music historians.
