JAPAN MARITIME SELF DEFENSE FORCE BAND OF TOKYO-Tribute

A NOTE ABOUT LPs
LPs make especially valuable acquisitions for your music library because copies
have become increasingly scarce, and offer many compositions and performances
that are still not available on compact disc. Additionally, analog recordings
generally have greater sonic depth than digital recordings.

BECAUSE LP ALBUMS ARE BIGGER THAN MY SCANNER BED,
THE SCANNED IMAGE DOES NOT SHOW THE FULL LP COVER

PUT YOUR LP MUSIC ON CDs!
Simply hook up a turntable containing a pre-amp to your PC and record your LP music to your hard disk.
Then burn the music files to CDs. With music editing software, you can even reduce the surface noise!

Here is an unusual title, an album planned and produced in Germany but
featuring a Japanese band. Thus all but one of the selections are German or
European in origin, with only one by a Japanese composer. This is a professional
military band here, though, and the music is dynamic and exciting throughout,
as you would expect from an ensemble such as this.

OTHER INTERNATIONAL BUYING INFORMATION

Many of my lighter-weight listings have flat-rate international shipping options
in the drop-down menu. For these items, you can pay right away with PayPal.
But if an international shipping cost is NOT indicated, you will need email me
prior to buying so I can weigh the item(s). I will then email you back
with the shipping options and their costs. When you buy, I will
add these costs in your invoice to make payment easy.

PLEASE NOTE THAT SHIPPING MULTIPLE HEAVIER ITEMS
INTERNATIONALLY, SUCH AS BOOKS, IS  NOW VERY EXPENSIVE,
USUALLY TOO COSTLY TO ORDER MORE THAN ONE AT A TIME.
That's because for heavier items, the newest U.S. postal rates have eliminated the cheaper
economy & seamail shipping options in favor of the more expensive
1st Class International & International Priority Mail shipping classes.
Large orders over 4 pounds must be sent via expensive International Priority Mail
---there are no other options at that weight.
Lighter items ideal for international simultaneous multiple purchases include CDs, DVDs,
cassette tapes, comics, etc., and up to 2-3 LPs at at time.
50 CENTS PER ADDITIONAL ORDERED ITEM SHIPPING DISCOUNT
DOES NOT APPLY TO INTERNATIONAL ORDERS.
I can usually offer multiple-purchase shipping discounts on international items when
they are purchased at the same time. But due to the wide weight range of items in my inventory,
and the cost variance to different worldwide destinations, I do not show flat-rate multiple item discounts in the
international shipping section---it's far too complex to do so. However, I will apply custom-determined
combined shipping  discounts on an individual basis and include them in your invoice.
