DAVID BOWIE
ALADDIN SANE
1973 JAPAN ORIGINAL
WHITE LABEL PROMO
RADIO STATION COPY
ALTERNATE SLEEVE
THIS IS ONE OF THE RAREST DAVID BOWIE LPs IN THE WORLD.
Of all the David Bowie LPs they ever put out in Japan .
NONE. NONE. NONE. NONE. NONE.
NONE OF THEM, ARE HARDER TO FIND THAN THIS !
Believe me. I am talking from actually living (for many years)
the experience of trying to locate ALL the Japan David Bowie releases.
I searched for this for years and years . That is why it is going to hurt like hell
to package up this UNBELIEVABLY RARE LP and mail it to its new owner.
But my decision has been made I am selling THE LOT !
43 years ago The RCA division of Japan pressed a minuscule 200 copies only.
I don`t believe that number. I think its more like 50 or maybe 100. In 20 years
I have only seen 1 other copy. They were sent out to radio stations across Japan
to be played across the airwaves to coincide with and and promote David`s first
1973 tour of Japan. The picture on the front is taken from 1969 around the time of
Bowie`s walk on part in the film The Virgin Soldiers just prior to his curly hair.
I like the way they popped a promo photo in with the LP, of Bowie, as he looked
at the time of the Sane tour and the full guise of his new character Aladdin Sane.
I think the record was stored in a Japan Radio station for years before it got into
the hands of one of the Japan record shops I used to buy from. So the sleeve is
a bit grubby and has some light foxing to the front and rear of this none gate fold
flip back. It is made of thin stock so there is no spine like on a normal pressing.
The white labels are in pristine condition on both sides . They are in SUPERB
condition TOTALLY FLAWLESS. They are also the most BOLDLY written
that I have ever seen on a Japan White label Promo (look at the typeset) .
The vinyl is much much better. I have no trouble claiming this AT ALL .
THIS VINYL IS TOTALLY MINT AND HAS NEVER BEEN PLAYED !
NOT ONCE. NOT EVER. TOTALLY MINT. DOUBLE CLICK THE PICTURES
AND JUST LOOK AT THE DEAD WAX AROUND THAT BOLD MATRIX NUMBER.
OUTSTANDING WITH THE HIGHEST POSSIBLE LUSTRE IMAGINABLE !!!!!
I WILL CRY THE DAY THIS EXCRUCIATINGLY RARE
DAVID BOWIE LP LEAVES MY POSSESSION.
I HAD SO MUCH TROUBLE LOCATING THIS.
DONT LET THIS RARE OPPORTUNITY PASS YOU BY.
DONT MESS UP YOUR TIMING IF YOUR IN ANOTHER COUNTRY.
GET YOUR BIDS IN EARLY AND GIVE YOURSELF YOUR BEST SHOT.
