WHAT IS A JAPAN "MINI/REPLICA-LP-SLEEVE" CD? Have you ever lamented the loss of one of the 20th Century's great art forms, the 12" vinyl LP jacket? Then "mini-LP-sleeve" CD's may be for you. Mini-sleeve CDs are manufactured in Japan under license. The disc is packaged inside a 135MM X 135MM cardboard precision-miniature replica of the original classic vinyl-LP album. Also, anything contained in the original LP, such as gatefolds, booklets, lyric sheets, posters, printed LP sleeves, stickers, embosses, special LP cover paper/inks/textures and/or die cuts, are precisely replicated and included. An English-language lyric sheet is always included, even if the original LP did not have printed lyrics. Then, there's the sonic quality: Mini-sleeves have dedicated remastering and can often be superior to the audio on the same title anywhere else in the world. Each Japan mini-sleeve has an "obi" ("oh-bee"), a removable Japan-language promotional strip. The obi lists the Japan street date of that particular release, the catalog number, the mastering info, and often the original album's release date maintaining the integrity of the original LP artwork. The obi's are collectable, and should not be discarded. All mini-sleeve releases are tremendously limited editions mainly pressed on future orders only and once released immediately out of print. This fact along with other latter features we've mentioned make these titles rare collectibles that sell in the collectors markets for $100's of dollars apiece. Japanese digitally re-mastered Mini LP replica Limited Edition Collection with OBI sash down the front – VERY FEW pieces made world-wide and are immediately Out of Print. Recorded from the finest Original Masters available. Comes with anti-static sleeves similar to Vinyl LPs, Cardboard packaging like an LP. Actual miniaturized version of the 12” LP in 4” CD version.

JUST ANOTHER BAND is probably the closest Zappa and company ever came to putting music second to comedy. Naturally, the musicianship is stellar as usual, but extended instrumental passages are virtually non-existent, replaced by Flo and Eddie's harmonies, delivering some howlingly funny lyrics. The centerpiece is the (originally) side-long "Billy the Mountain," a comic conceptual tour de force. Over a complex, suite-like form that incorporates multiple time and dynamic changes, the Mothers tell the surreal story of a Mountain named Billy who walked like a man, and his conflicts with those pesky little humans. "Magdalena" offers a parody of Four Tops-style romantic devotional tunes, while "Call Any Vegetable" ranks among the finest food songs of the rock era (a surprisingly impressive distinction). Japanese version featuring a limited LP style slipcase cover. Strictly limited to 2000 copies! Japanese version featuring a limited LP style slipcase cover.
