Description: This is scarce Japanese original copy ( released in 1970 ) of his 2nd album, coming with complete appendices. The disc is beautiful red wax, issued only for Japanese 1st pressing. The gate-fold cover is textured on its surface of each side. The price on the cover is JPY2000, while that of obi is JPY2200. It’s hard to find this album with red wax even in our country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.
