( Jerry Garcia ) New Riders Of The Purple Sage / Same Title
Japan Orig. LP


CBS SOPC 57148

Appendices: "Original Cap OBI”, “Insert” & “Shrink-Wrap”

Description: This is scarce Japanese original copy ( released in 1971 ) of their 1st album, coming with complete appendices. An enclosed insert is with “Japanese liner notes” and “English lyrics”. Cover is still in the “shrink-wrap”, keeping the cap obi in most part intact. It’s hard to find Japanese copy of this album even in our country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.


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


COVER: Cover is good in condition, being still in the “shrink-wrap”. Shrink-wrap is open at the right-edge and partly torn in the left bottom corner of back side. Surfaces of front and back in the shrink are lightly stained in part. Otherwise it has no tear, edge-wear, ring-wear, strip, dent & writing…OK.

DISC: Disc is excellent in condition, keeping glossy. A couple of tiny slight scratches are on Side B-1 ( inaudible ). There’s a tiny spindle-mark on the label of Side A. Otherwise it has none of any scuff & hairline, which is to be rated as "EX+". No flaw on the groove of Side A and mostly on Side B…clean disc, we guarantee you.

OBI: VG+, being still kept in the “shrink-wrap”. It’s partly creased with minor brown spots on the right-rim of front.

INSERTS: G+, being tanned along the left-rim of front and lightly on the surface of back side and other part of front.
