( Billy Joel ) The Hassles / Hour of the Wolf
Japan Orig. LP


United Artists K25P - 23

Appendices: "Original OBI” & “Insert”

Description: This is scarce Japanese original copy ( released in 1980 ) of their original album, coming with complete appendices. Billy Joel was one of the members in this band, before his solo career. This album was not issued until 1980 in Japan. It’s hard to find this item even in my country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.


Condition: VG+/NM ( Cover / Disc )


COVER: Cover is good in condition, except for partly worn corners, bottom, spine & slightly other outer-edges. It’s lightly stained with minor spots in upper portion of back. Otherwise it has no tear, ring-wear, dent, strip & writing...OK.

DISC: Disc is nearly TOP in condition, keeping glossy. There are minor spots on each 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.

OBI: VG, being lightly waving on the surface of each side, while being slightly stained on that of back. A few scratch lines are in lower portion of front.

INSERT: VG+, being slightly discolored with minor spots on the surface of each side.
