Concerto For Group And Orchestra - Rock Age obi

DEEP PURPLE & THE ROYAL PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA Concerto For Group And Orchestra (Extremely rare 1970 original Japanese blue label promo sample black vinyl LP pressed by Warner-Pioneer. With labels showing only a couple of light spindlemarks, the vinyl shows very little evidence of play and comes issued in the heavyweight gatefold picture sleeve [which displays only light shelfwear for its age] complete with the insert plus the unbelievably rare all important 'Rock Age' shaped obi-strip in incredible shape. An outstanding example and only the SECOND promo copy we have ever seen P-8093W)

In chronological terms this original LP is actually a second issue. The very first Japanese pressings of Concerto For Group And Orchestra were made by Toshiba Musical Industries, on red wax, but these were very quickly withdrawn after Toshiba were told they did not have permission to release the album. This created an instant rarity and in the past 20 years we've only seen 2 copies of the Toshiba pressing, and the one copy we had was actually a test pressing! The other was so expensive (into the £ thousands!) that we didn't buy it.

Whilst the Toshiba pressing is probably the most desirable issue to get hold of, this original Warner-Pioneer pressing is still the first official release and, with the square shaped 'Rock Age' obi, it's still near impossible to find complete and in near Mint condition. At over 45 years of age, it's not actually the record that's the hard part to get; as usual it's the all-important slim strip of paper that makes an original 1970 issue with the 'Rock Age' obi such a scarce item to find.
