Description: This is scarce Japanese Early Press copy ( released in 1977 ) of their 1st album, coming with rare yellow obi. Gate-fold cover is with live shot outside and “English lyrics” & “Japanese liner notes” inside. Insert was not originally issued for this edition. It’s hard to find this album in any condition even in our country. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.

COVER: Cover is partly worn on corners & outer edges. Ring-wear is on the back side. Front surface is lightly scraped. It’s partly discolored along the right-rim of front and bottom-rim of back side ( See photos ). Inside gate-fold is clean. Otherwise it has no tear, strip, dent, stain & writing…OK.

DISC: Disc is good in condition, keeping glossy. Some light scratches are on Side A. There’s a spindle-mark on each label. Otherwise it has none of any scuff & hairline, which is to be rated as "VG". No flaw on the groove of Side B. It plays fine on each side.
