Korean Mini LP releases 14 Years, 1 Month ago Karma: 0  
Any of you ever bought a Korean mini LP ? They look pretty good on the web - but how about the quality of printing and the sound ? I don't know the quality standards. The prices are pretty good and they have stuff that is hard to get sometimes.

Yes, I have some not released at Japan, like Lookaftering from Bashti Bunyan. And the first 14 released by Universal (blue and white obi) of classic albums: Hendrix, Elton John, Rolling S, Police, Cream, Dreke & D, Marley, Clapton, S. Wonder. These are nice but not as good quality of the same albums released in Japan.

I have bought some too and they are fine. I can't really comment on the sound - although I do have Goodbye Yellow Brick Road so I should so a comparison (I plan to create a photo page with all the versions I know of including "official fake", Koyean, Russian (real fake), Japanese, SHM, another?). I'll have a closer look at covers when I do that (sigh - if only I had the time). Sam.

I've just received this mini LP from Korea : The Shiver - Walpurgis. I must say that the item is quite well made : gatefold, textured cover, 2 sided poster and of course the disc itself, silkscreened and all. Very nice presentation and the sound is just great as well.

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.
