Duran Duran / Carnival
Japan Orig. PROMO LP


EMI EMS - 50125

Appendices: "Original OBI", “Insert”, “Sample White Sticker”, “Promo White Label” & “2 Fold-Out Posters”

Description: This is scarce Japanese original PROMO copy ( released in 1982 ) of their 5 track mini album, comin' with complete appendices. A “SAMPLE ( in Japanese )” white sticker is on the top-rim of front-obi and bottom-rim of back-cover. The label of disc is beautiful in white for promotional use. The enclosed 2 fold-out posters were issued in limited number for its 1st press. It’s hard to find Japanese promotional copy of this album even in my country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.

Side B: Hungry like the wolf ( night version ), New religion


Condition: G+/NM- ( Cover / Disc )


COVER: Cover is partly worn on the corners & outer-edges. It’s scraped with minor scratches & partial ring-wear on the front & back. Short creases are on the spine-rims. The spine-edge is lightly discolored. Otherwise it has no tear, dent, strip, stain & writing...OK.

DISC: Disc is nearly TOP in condition, keeping glossy. There are some spindle-marks 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.
