This album includes 14 tracks of his early days. The cover is different in design from US copy on the front & back. It shows inside “Japanese liner notes” & “the track list”.

The label of disc is in green for promotional use. “SAMPLE” letters are also printed in Japanese on each label. This Japanese edition doesn’t appear even in Discogs. Though obi is missing, it’s still hard to find this item even in our country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.
