Description

Forgive my attempt at taking pictures...  but at least you get the idea, seeing my fingers through the dark orange vinyl
(I did carefully re-clean the vinyl after I took the see through picture).  My partner here insists on mood lighting only in the house - sorry.

It's best viewed through sunshine, the whole album lights up.

RELEASED IN 1982, THE FIRST DIGITAL RECORDING OF FRIDA'S SOMETHING'S GOING ON LP TO BE TRANSCRIBED ONTO VINYL

THIS WAS THE SPECIAL EDITION PRESSED ON TRANSLUCENT DARK ORANGE SEE THROUGH VINYL.
(All others were on regular solid black vinyl.  Hold this copy to the light and it's orange and see through - translucent)

THIS REALLY IS A JAPANESE SUPER RECORDING AT IT'S VERY BEST.

Matrix Run Out Side A - DSP 5116 A 121
Matrix Run Out Side B - DSP 5116 B 121

PLAYS LIKE A DREAM, HO HISS, NO CRACKLES, NO SCRATCHES, NO JUMPS.  DAMN NEAR PERFECT IF I SAY SO MYSELF.

Album cover is immaculate, not a mark or blemish.  Still surrounded by original shrink wrap with circular obi still attached.

Vinyl is in a clear PVC bag and there is a full sized insert with double picture and lyrics in both English and Japanese.

I've had this since new in 1982 and there really isn't anything to complain about.  Translucent vinyl too.  I know this is quite the rarity.

I love this album and will be sad to see it leave.  I know it will make an invaluable addition to ANY Abba/Frida collection.

Not even listed on Discogs... Regular releases on black vinyl are but not this one.  So rare.

You can see from my feedback the albums I have let go already are as described.  HONEST.

Don't let this one pass you by

YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED...
