Description: This is scarce Japanese original copy ( released in 1968 ) of Bee Gees’ “Horizontal”, coming with very rare obi. This album was issued with completely different cover’s artwork in Japan. It shows inside gate-fold "Japanese liner notes" & “English lyrics”. Not only the cover, but also the track-list’s order is different from that of other countries’ one ( See the track-list ). Insert was not originally issued for this item. It’s very hard to find this item with obi even in our country. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.
