Description

SHINKI CHEN: Shinki Chen & Friends

country/year: JP/1971
label: Polydor MR 5003
condition (rec/cov): EX+/M-
100% original first pressing

This is the ORIGINAL first pressing of Shinki Chen: Chinki Chen & Friends. Issued in 1971 in Japan on red Polydor label, comes in a thick, slightly textured gatefold cover (fantastic cover art by the way!!)!

Well, this it's truely a legendary LP and for sure THE ultimative Japanese Hard-Prog/Psych LP ever! Amazing guitars, roaring organs, burning lead vocals...what a band this was: Shinki Chen, Hiro Yanagida, Masayoshi Kabe, George Yanagi, Shinichi Yogi,. ..

Disc is in beautiful EX+ condition, just a few light hairlines/paper scuffs (1 tiny mark on side 2, track 2). Only very minor suface noise in the few quiet parts (are there any??).

Textured foldout cover is near mint, bar slightly bumped corners.

Unbelieveable condition for such a rare Masterpiece! Impossible to find even in Japan, has totally vanished and will be rare forever!

Please check pictures.

As always, no reserve - record goes to the highest bidder!

All records are from my private collection!

Shipment: Generally I will use EMS (priority Express Mail Service) as this is the most reliable and fastest way (w/insurance if needed).
