Pink Floyd - The Dark Side Of The Moon [Japan, CP35-3017-7 1A1, ¥3,286/3,190] - CD

[8622] Japan EMI 1983/4 10-track CD in jewel case with 24-page booklet and ¥3,286/3,190 priced obi. The very first CBS/Sony mastering of Dark Side of the Moon for CD without the Ticket To Ride snippet. The back cover inlay is with perforations at fold line. The ¥3,286/3,190 obi is supposed to be from post-1983 and not corresponding with the examination of first Japanese pressings by Vernon Fitch (see: http://pinkfloydarchives.com/Discog/Japan/DSCD1/JADS1.htm). However, the CD originates from the collection of Andreas Kraska who purchased the CD shortly after its release. A very rare original complete 1983/1984 pressing. Provenance: Andreas Kraska Collection. CP35-3017. NM/EX.
