Hard to find Hong Kong release, possibly intended for the Japanese market (Yen pricing on the rear cover)
Simon & Garfunkel - Greatest Hits
Sony - CBS Records
Cat# SOPM 106
1973
Hong Kong release
Gatefold cover is in very good condition, no tears, no seam splits, no writing and clean. This cover is a heavy card. Rear cover states Sony CBS Hong Kong Y2300 (bottom edge/right side)
New inner plastic sleeve
Vinyl is in very good condition, inspected under a white halogen light source and I can see only a few very light scratches or marks, generally in the lead-in area. I then played the album entirely and surface noise or click/pops are not an issue at all. In fact I had the impression this is really nice vinyl used for the pressing, many of the songs seem to be much better sounding than the common CBS releases. Particularly tracks such as The Boxer, the instruments (such as the sax) really really sound good. Great play of this once very popular folk rock duo.
New outer protective sleeve
Tracks: Mrs Robinson, For Emily Whenever I May Find Her, The Boxer, The 59th Street Bridge Song (Feelin' Groovy), The Sound Of Silence, I Am A Rock, Scarborough Fair/Canticle, Homeward Bound, Bridge Over Troubled Water, America, Kathy's Song, El Condor Pasa (If I Could), Bookends, Cecilia
