WHAT IS A JAPAN "MINI/REPLICA-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.

LIVE IN DENMARK - THIS JAPANESE REPLICA TITLE IS SO RARE IT SELLS FOR $740 IN THE COLLECTORS MARKET AND THERE IS ONLY ONE SELLER IN THE WORLD THAT STILL HAS A SEALED COPY LIKE THIS ONE. - GATEFOLD JACKET 2 CD SET
This is a 2 CD set of Deep Purple live at KB Hallen 1972.
It is the same show as the black & white video that was performed for a live TV audience at KB Hallen. If you haven't seen the footage, find a copy. This is a rippin' show from the Mark 2 lineup.
The show was recorded before the famous Made In Japan shows.
Smoke On The Water was not in the setlist. The band had not thought of it becoming a hit.
There are various older discs of this (KB Hallen) show in circulation , and like California Jam, there are some concerns with the previous issues.
The newer releases are the ones to have.
Sonic Zoom has remastered this show and it sounds fine on this release.
Album like packaging with a gatefold cover. Excellent liner notes in English, with a Japanese set as well.
