Bee Gees / Idea
Japan Orig. LP


Polydor SMP – 1414 ( Nippon Grammophon )

Appendices: “Different G/F Cover ( insert )"
( OBI is missing / INSERT is not included )

Description: This is scarce Japanese original copy ( released in 1969 ) of their original album. This album was issued with gate-fold cover whose back cover is different from any other countries’ copies. It shows “Japanese liner notes” and “English lyrics” with “Photo of members” inside. The insert is not included in this copy. But it’s not sure if it was originally issued for this item. “Nippon Grammophon” letters are printed on the outer rim of each label. Though obi is missing, it’s still hard to find this item even in our country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.


Condition: G+/VG+ ( Cover / Disc )


COVER: Cover is partly worn on the corners, spine, right-edge & lightly other outer-edges. It’s lightly scraped around the rims inside gate-fold, while being stained with minor spots on the surface of each side ( not conspicuous ). Otherwise it has no tear, ring-wear, dent, strip & writing…OK.

DISC: Disc is good in condition, keeping glossy. It has slight scuffs in part on Side A with a slight scratch on each side ( inaudible ). There are several spindle-marks with minor spots on each label. Otherwise it has none of any serious flaw ( such as deep scratch ), which is to be rated as "VG+".

OBI: Missing.

INSERT: The insert is not included in this copy. But it’s not sure if it was originally issued for this item.
