Some words o0n this issue: SAMURAI: “S/T” (Philips – FX-8517) Original 1971 press. Totally vanished first original Japanese pressing, this has completely dried up these past years, copies just do not surface anymore, making it 5 times as rare as the more common German issue. First original Japanese pressing. Comes with insert. Miki Curtis & Samurai second self-entitled album. Hyper rare progressive and psychedelic masterpiece with vicious organ leads and guitar ripping insertions. I guess you know the drill and the status of this disc. I think that this monster does not come any better than this. All time Japanese psych masterpiece and a tough score these days. Truly great copy in excellent condition. Since the original Japanese issue vanished completely + fact I haven’t had a copy in at least 5 years, you may have a chance to get this beast

New to the e-bay game but long experience in selling records so bid with confidence.

Our grading scale: Mint/ Near Mint/ Excellent/ VG++/. We don’t sell anything below VG++. VG++ grade is basically that the record has some scuffs and has wear. Excellent: record has hardly no visible defects and is preserved with care and attention, the condition most collectors take pride in to file away. Near Mint: a dash below mint, just perfect. Mint: like new.
