Description: This is scarce Japanese original copy ( released in 1974 ) of his live triple album, coming with rare appendices. It was recorded live at Kosei Nenkin Hall, Osaka, Japan on Jul. 3 & 4, 1973. All appendices are included but 4 pin-ups. Anyway, it’s still hard to find this copy in any condition even in my country. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.


Condition: VG/NM/NM/NM ( Cover / Disc 1/2/3 )


COVER: Cover is good in condition, except for partly worn corners & outer-edges. A tiny tear is in the right top corner of back side ( See photo ). It’s lightly scraped with light ring-wear on the surface of front. Minor creases are around the rims of front side. Inside and back sides are clean. Otherwise it has no strip, dent, stain & writing...OK.

DISC 1/2/3: All discs are nearly TOP in condition, keeping glossy. Each disc has a few spindle-marks on each label. Otherwise each disc has none of any scuff, scratch & hairline, which can be rated as “NM". Though there’re a few minor marks on the surfaces, they’re not flaw but just “misprint” which don’t affect the sound. Anyway, no flaw on the groove of both… very clean discs, we guarantee you.

OBI: VG, being lightly creased with tiny tear along the lower right-rim of front. Front surface is with clear stain-marks.

INSERT ( RED ): G, being creased and stained for aging on its surfaces. / Another insert is Missing.

SHAPED POSTER: VG+/VG each, being rippled with minor creases on the surface of each side, while being partly worn on outer edges. One of them is with a stain-mark on its surface.

INNER SLEEVES: VG each, being creased with ring-wear on each side. Otherwise no tear or split on outer edges.

PIN-UPS: Missing.
