Chicago / Chicago V
Japan Early Press LP


CBS SOPN 79

Appendices: "Red & White OBI", "G/F Cover" & “2 Inserts”

Description: This is scarce Japanese copy ( released in 1978 ) of their 5th album, coming with complete appendices. One insert is with “Japanese liner notes” on the front & “English lyrics” on the other side, while another is advertisement for various artists of CBS Japan in those days. It's hard to find this item in complete shape even in our country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.


Condition: EX-/EX+ ( Cover / Disc )


COVER: Cover is good in condition, except for partly worn corners, top, bottom & lightly other outer edges. The spine-edge is lightly discolored. It’s clean on the front, back & inside gate-fold. Otherwise no tear, ring-wear, dent, strip, stain & writing...OK.

DISC: Disc is excellent in condition, keeping glossy. A slight line of scuff is on Side A-3. There are a few spindle-marks on each label. Otherwise it has none of any scratch & hairline, which is to be rated as "EX+". No flaw on the groove of Side B.
