Ventures / Swamp Rock
Japan Orig. LP


Liberty LP - 9516

Appendices: "Original OBI” & “Fine Textured Different G/F Cover w/ Booklet ( attached inside gate-fold )"
( INSERT is not included )

Description: This is scarce Japanese original copy ( released in 1969 ) of their original album, coming with rare original obi. The booklet is attached inside gate-fold, showing "Japanese liner notes" & “Colorful photo of members". The gate-fold cover is fine-textured outside, and different in design from any other countries’ copies. The disc is not red but black. Anyway, it’s hard to find this item in any condition even in our country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.

Side A: Honky tonk women, Muddy Mississippi line, Jambalaya, Swamp rock, Niki Hoeky, Carry me back, Classical gas

Side B: Green river, Suspicious minds, Catfish mud dance, Proud Mary, Gumbo, Plaquemines parish

COVER: Cover is partly worn on the corners & outer-edges. It’s scraped with white spots marks in places with light ring-wear on the surface of front & back, as usual with this type of cover. It’s tanned with some minor brown spots inside gate-fold. 2 small plastic stickers are in the left bottom corner of front side. Otherwise it has none of any tear, strip, dent & writing...OK.

DISC: Disc is excellent in condition, keeping glossy. It has some slight scuffs on Side B and a few on Side A. There’re some spindle-marks on each label. Otherwise it has none of any scratch & hairline, which is to be rated as "EX-".

OBI: G+, being lightly stained on the surface of back, while being slightly rippled on that of front. It’s partly torn in the right bottom-edge of front. A supply-tag is attached to the top of back.

INSERT: INSERT is not included. Instead, a booklet is originally inlayed inside gate-fold cover.
