Generally good, but there are occasional instances of small, periodic noise (A-2, B-2). The vinyl surface has light scratches and hairline marks when closely examined. Please refer to the photos. The sleeve has almost no damage such as wrinkles, yellowing, stains, or dents, but there are scuffs and light ring wear. It's a face jacket, so please be aware of this if you are concerned. The inner sleeve has a general feeling of use (light wrinkles). There appear to be no major noticeable stains or folds. Overall, both the vinyl and sleeve are rated VG++ (VG+ close to NM-). This is Tatsuro Yamashita's 5th album, released in 1987 after moving to MOON RECORDS. He used overseas musicians and produced it himself. Released in the late 80s when CDs were becoming more popular, this record is less common in the used market than his Victor era releases. The B-1 track, which was released as a single, features musicians such as Takeshi Kobayashi and Kenji Omura. His next album onwards saw him move his production base to LA and transition to a full-fledged AOR sound, but this work still retains the feel of domestic 80s city pop, and has many good songs. ——- If you have any concerns about the condition, please ask in the comments.
