YMO LP Box

Overview

YMO LP Box --- 1994-01-21

LPs include all original inserts and obi strips, although these are blank on the back (the originals usually promoted other releases). The first X∞ Multiplies (ALJA 5) is pressed here on 12" not the usual 10", and the sleeve looks like the UK pressing of that album. It also includes a fold-out insert. The second X∞ Multiplies (ALJA 6) includes a 24" x 24" double-sided poster. Service has a red obi not the usual black obi. The red obi was used for one of the mini LP CD pressings! The bonus EP features an interview with Hosono, "Computer Game" and "Firecracker" play in the background. The live version of "Rydeen" included here was performed live on the TV show "Yoru No Hit Studio" and only otherwise appears on the video/laserdisc release "TV-YMO". A red YMO handkerchief is also included. 1st LP: ©1978 by Alfa Records, Inc. ℗1978 Recorded & mixed at Studio "A", Shibaura, Tokyo from July 10 to September 5, 1978.
