Allman Brothers Band / Beginnings
Japan PROMO 2LP


Capricorn VIP – 9505 ~ 6

Appendices: "Blue & White OBI”, “Black Slim OBI”, “G/F Cover", “Booklet”, "Insert" & “Promo White Labels”


Description: This is scarce Japanese PROMO copy ( released in 1976 ) of their double compilation album, comin' with complete appendices. A booklet shows “Japanese description” and “Photos of Duane Allman”. Each label of both discs is beautiful in white for promotional use. It’s hard to find Japanese promo copy of this album even in my country. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.


Condition: G+/NM/EX+ ( Cover / Disc1/2 )


COVER: Cover is partly worn on the corners & outer-edges. There’s light ring-wear on each side. It’s stained with brown spots on the top & left-rims inside gate-fold. Otherwise it has no tear, strip, dent & writing...OK.

DISC 1: Disc 1 is nearly TOP in condition, keeping glossy. There are several spindle-marks on the label. Otherwise it has none of any scuff, scratch & hairline, which can be rated as "NM". No flaw on the groove…very clean disc, I guarantee you.

DISC 2: Disc 2 is excellent in condition, keeping glossy. A slight mark is on Side B-3. There are some spindle-marks on the label of Side B. Otherwise it has none of any scratch & hairline, which is to be rated as "EX+". No flaw on the groove of Side A and mostly on Side B…clean disc, I guarantee you.

OBI: EX ( original ) / VG ( black slim ), being partly creased with a short tear in lower left-rim of front.

INSERT: VG+ being lightly discolored on the surface of each side.

BOOKLET: VG+, being lightly discolored on the surface of each page.
