Ritchie Blackmore’s Rainbow / Same Title
Japan Limited Edition LP


Polydor MPX 4023

Appendices: "Yellow OBI", "G/F Cover" & "Insert"

Description: This is scarce Japanese Limited Edition copy ( released in 1980 ) of their 1st album, coming with complete appendices. AD on obi reads in Japanese as “Absolutely Limited Edition”. The insert is with “Japanese liner notes” and “English lyrics”. It’s hard to find this album even in our country year by year. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.


Condition: VG/EX ( Cover / Disc )


COVER: Cover is good in condition, except for slightly worn corners & top-edge. It’s stained with minor brown spots in the right bottom corner & rim of front & back. The top-rim inside gate-fold is lightly scraped. Otherwise it has no tear, ring-wear, dent, strip & writing...OK.

DISC: Disc looks nearly TOP in condition, keeping glossy. There’s a spindle-mark on the label of Side B. Otherwise it has none of any scuff, scratch & hairline, which can be rated as “NM". But it’s lightly warped on its surfaces, which doesn’t affect its play or sound. Then it totally rates as “EX”. Anyway, no flaw on the groove and mostly on each label…very clean disc, we guarantee you.

OBI: G+, being stained with brown spots on the surface of back, while being clean in the front.

INSERT: VG, being lightly tanned on the surface of each side. A brown spot is in the left top corner of front & right top corner of back side.
