Paper sleeve releases from HMV Japan have Obi's? 12 Years, 3 Months ago Karma: 0  
I was on their site (http://www.hmv.co.jp/en/) the other night and noticed that their paper sleeve section contained pictures and only a few of the pictures had OBI's. Are the ones without OBI's just stock photos? Do all their paper sleeve CD's have OBI's?

Of course they have OBI's - I recently ordered a mini LP from HMV and the OBI was there.
I ordered Cream - Wheels Of Fire as a SHM and everything was there. Just general pictures
that they put on their Website.

Front cover (main) image of VICP-5442,3,4 : Emerson, Lake + Palmer : First True Japanese Mini LP Rock Release
VICP-5442,3,4 : 1994-09-21

The first three Emerson Lake and Palmer albums (self titled, Tarkus and Pictures at an Exhibition) are arguably the first true Rock Mini LPs. They were released on 21st September 1994.

These had been preceded by a much earlier Lotus and a US release of some Rolling Stones albums repackaged for Japan a few short months before these. Neither of these earlier releases was true to the original vinyl although the Stones came close.

The earliest true Minis were two series of MCA Jazz releases from March 1994 (MVCZ-26 to MVCZ-45) including this example: Death and The Flower.

Home made box featuring art work from Queen's "A Night At The Opera". Images for this box were anonymously donated to the MiniLPs site along with the assurance that only a few of these were made for close friends.
