Cream / Disraeli Gears
Japan Orig. LP


Polydor SLMP 1390 ( Disc ) / SMP ( Cover ) Nippon Grammophon


Appendices: "F/B Different Cover"
( OBI & INSERT are Missing )

Description: This is scarce Japanese original copy ( released in 1968 ) of their original album. Cover is printed on the back with “Japanese liner notes” & “Photo of members”, different from UK copy. It is “flipped back” on its top & bottom-rims. “Nippon Grammophon” letters are printed on the bottom-rim of back cover, and the outer-rim of each label.

Disc’s cat. number is “SLMP”, while Cover is “SMP”. This copy seems to have been issued in transition from very early press of “SLMP” to “SMP”. Though obi & insert are missing, it’s still hard to find this album even in my country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.


Condition: G/VG ( Cover / Disc )


COVER: Cover is partly worn on the corners, bottom, right-edge & lightly other outer edges. It’s lightly creased and scraped with light ring-wear on the surface of each side. Back surface is lightly tanned and stained in part. Short creases are on the spine-rims. A short tear is in the middle of left-rim of back side. 2 small plastic stickers are on the left bottom corner of front side. Otherwise it has no dent, strip & writing...OK.

DISC: Disc has slight scuffs including slight hairlines in places on Side B and a few on Side A. A misprint like a tiny “bump” is on Side A-1 ( inaudible…See photo ). Otherwise it has none of any scratch, which is to be rated as "VG". It plays strong on each side.

OBI: Missing.

INSERT: Missing.
