Japan Orig. LP


Polydor MP 2148 Nippon Grammophon


Appendices: "Original OBI” & “G/F Different Cover w/ A Fold-Out Poster ( attached inside cover )”
( INSERT is not included )

Description: This is scarce Japanese original copy ( released in 1971 ) of their 3rd original album, coming with rare original obi. Their 3rd album ( Scorpio’s Dance ) was issued with different cover in Japan. A colorful fold-out poster is originally attached inside gate-fold cover.

The gate-fold shows inside "Japanese liner notes" & "English lyrics". Though an insert is not included, it's not sure if it was originally issued for this item. It’s very hard to find this item with obi even in our country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.


Side A: Scorpio’s dance, Alaska country, Sally was a good old girl, Daemon lover, Scorpio’s dance

Side B: Little cooling planet, I love voodoo music, Seven is a number in magic, Keep it if you want it, Water boy


Condition: VG+/VG ( Cover / Disc )


COVER: Cover is good in condition, except for partly worn corners, spine & lightly other outer-edges. It’s lightly scraped on the surface of front & back, and around the rims inside gate-fold. Inlayed fold-out poster is stained with brown spots on its blank side, though the front side of poster is clean. Otherwise it has no tear, ring-wear, dent, strip & writing...OK.

DISC: Disc is good in condition, keeping glossy. It has some slight scuffs including slight scratches and hairlines on each side. There are spindle-marks on each label. Otherwise it has none of any serious flaw ( such as deep scratch ), which is to be rated as "VG". All of flaws are so slight that it plays fine on each track.

OBI: G+, being stained with light brown stain-marks on the surface of each side, while being lightly rippled on that of each side. It’s creased with a short tear in the middle of right-rim of front side.

INSERT: INSERT is not originally issued for this item.
