JAPAN - Tin Drum LP
Rare original 1981 UK Virgin Records ORIGINAL FIRST PRESS VINYL LP album complete with the rarely seen original limited edition large black & white POSTER that only came with the very initial first pressing. V2209. Matrices A4/B3. Stereo.
A magnificent original example of this classic JAPAN album which includes the rarely seen and beautiful fold-out POSTER which was only available with the very first pressing. Original 1981 UK 8-track vinyl LP including The Art Of Parties, Ghosts and Visions Of China, making this one of the finest albums of the eighties.
I doubt if you can find a much better original UK 1st pressing, complete with the elusive poster, of this totally classic Japan LP.
