WHAT IS A JAPAN "REPLICA MINI-LP-SLEEVE" CD?

Have you ever lamented the loss of one of the 20th Century's great art forms, the 12" vinyl LP jacket? Then "mini-LP-sleeve" CD's may be for you.

Mini-sleeve CDs are manufactured in Japan under license. The disc is packaged inside a 135MM X 135MM cardboard precision-miniature replica of the original classic vinyl-LP album. Also, anything contained in the original LP, such as gatefolds, booklets, lyric sheets, posters, printed LP sleeves, stickers, embosses, special LP cover paper/inks/textures and/or die cuts, are precisely replicated and included. An English-language lyric sheet is always included, even if the original LP did not have printed lyrics.

Then, there's the sonic quality:  Mini-sleeves have dedicated remastering (20-Bit, 24-Bit, DSD, K2/K2HD, and/or HDCD), and can often be superior to the audio on the same title anywhere else in the world. There also may be bonus tracks unavailable elsewhere.

Each Japan mini-sleeve has an "obi" ("oh-bee"), a removable Japan-language promotional strip. The obi lists the Japan street date of that particular release, the catalog number, the mastering info, and often the original album's release date. Bonus tracks are only listed on the obi, maintaining the integrity of the original LP artwork. The obi's are collectable, and should not be discarded.

All mini-sleeve releases are tremendously limited editions mainly pressed on future orders only and once released immediately out of print. This fact along with other latter features we've mentioned make these titles rare collectibles that sell in the collectors markets for $100's of dollars apiece. Japanese digitally re-mastered Mini LP replica Limited Edition Collection with OBI sash down the front – VERY FEW pieces made world-wide and are immediately Out of Print.  Recorded from the finest Original Masters available.  Comes with anti-static sleeves similar to Vinyl LPs, Cardboard packaging like an LP.  Actual miniaturized version of the 12” LP in 4” CD version

REPLICA CD'S INCLUDE: 

First-pressing-only 6CD box set containing paper-sleeve editions of six
of Rod Stewart's early solo albums.  Titles include "An Old Raincoat
Won't Ever Let You Down", "Gasoline Alley", "Every Picture Tells a
Story", "Never a Dull Moment", "Smiler", and "Sing It Again Rod".

EVERY PICTURE TELLS A STORY -

This was the best rock album of 1971, a true masterpiece of folk rock, hard rock and blues rock. If Rod Stewart had carried on in this vein, he would have been bigger than Elvis now and with his credibility intact, like Springsteen, Tom Waits and the Rolling Stones. These songs are real gems, from the hard rocking Maggie May, Reason To Believe and That's Alright to the more folky numbers like Tomorrow Is A Long Time, Seems Like A Long Time and the deliciously sad but uplifting Mandolin Wind

AN OLD RAINCOAT WON'T LET YOU DOWN -

Here are the songs: 1)Street Fighting Man 2)Man Of Constant Sorrow 3)Blind Prayer 4)Handbags And Gladrags 5)An Old Raincoat Won't Ever Let You Down 6)I Wouldn't Ever Change a Thing 7)Cindy's Lament 8)Dirty Old Town.
I recommend this album to anyone who likes Rod Stewart's early gritty rock & roll. Keith Emerson also graces this album with some great keyboard work on some of the tracks! Imagine a much harder rocking version of Maggie May, that's the best way I can think of to describe this album. Happy listening!
