Description: This is scarce Japanese Early Press copy ( released in early 1970’s ) of their US OST album, comin' with complete appendices. The disc is not red but black. A new price sticker of JPY2300 is on the top-rim of obi and the bottom-rim of back cover. It's hard to find this item even in my country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.
