John Cougar Mellencamp / Uh-Huh
Japan Orig. PROMO LP


Mercury 25PP - 105

Appendices: "Original OBI", “Insert”, “Sample Red Sticker”, “Promo Label” & “Fold-Out Promo Insert”

Description: This is scarce Japanese original PROMO copy ( released in 1983 ) of his original album, coming with complete appendices. A red “SAMPLE” ( in Japanese ) sticker is on the right top-rim of front cover, while the same letters are printed on each label of disc ( See photos ). An enclosed fold-out colorful insert was issued only for Japanese promotional copy. It’s inside with “Japanese liner notes” and “Photos of John”. Anyway, it’s hard to find Japanese promo copy of this album even in our country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.
