Cute Russian Fake SCORPIONS' BLACKOUT Gatefold Mini-Lp cd with poster and obi strip - following the Japanese-Style Pressings

Continuation of some Fabulous Russian Fakes Mini-Lps of Scorpions CDs which are basically following the Japanese style pressings but with a creativity that results in a very nice packaging. 
I dont think there is ever a Scorpions "Gatefold" in any format for the Blackout album except for this collectible. Correct me if I am wrong.

This is a real beauty this one.

- Well made mini-lp design with a Gatefold.
- Quality printings on all the papers which made the small artworks of all the Japanese style cartoons of the Scorpions stand out.
- plus a very nice mini POSTER
- Obi Strip
- And whatever else on these photos in this posting.

OK, ni kasi aku kejap jawab soalan2 kat blog post lepas..

Berteromber - Ni semua aku beli online dari Russia. Tu jam aku nak "upgrade" atau kumpul CD Scorpions. Jadi aku nak pastikan aku beli CD yang packaging paling best, sound wise terpulang kat telinga masing2 kan. Remasters tak semestinya terbaik - Contoh - Iron Maiden nye horrible remasters tu. 
Dan packaging ni of course yang paling best. Satu kurang dari $20US tu jam or is it kurang dari Sing$20 dah lupa tapi tak mahal la harga cd biasa gitu. Kau tahu yang Iron Maiden nye packaging macam gini? Dah tak boleh dapat dah. Aku rasa sold out. Kadang2 kat Ebay ada tapi harga dah giler melambung tinggi.


Faizal - Ni bukan LP, ni bungkusan mini-LP aje cara kreativiti orang Russia.


Speedrider - Kalau kau nak beli Savage Amusement LP, aku tak rasa WUJUD mana2 pressing album vinyl ni dalam bentuk Gatefold. Scorpions Gatefold vinyl cuma apa aku tahu Tokyo Tapes yang dorang jalan kat jalanraya tu, World Wide Live, ada la lama2 nye. Tapi tu pun kau kena hati2.

Kalau kau nak yang contoh ada poster, ada extra2 ni semua, mungkin kau kena carik cetakan paling pertama Jepun nye, tapi aku rasa la kalau kau jumpa pun harga dah melambong. Kau gi tengok Iron Maiden Japan LP first pressing yang dalam ada poster tu harga dah berapa sekarang. Giler dorang tarik harga. 


MM - China nye pressing is dorang betul2 tiru Jepun nye pressing siap dengan OBI Strip. Tapi dorang tiru tepat sangat DAN TAK KAN ADA SAPA NAK MENGAKU TU TIRUAN. Tu yang tak best pasal penjual baik ONLINE atau kat kedai, atau kat flea market, kalau secara sengaja atau tak sengaja, ikut harga Original dah kira tipu pembeli.

Pembeli ingat dorang beli original tapi pirated version. Kau tahu yang Led Zeppelin berapa tahun lepas ada versi Japanese Pressing with Obi Strip ke hapa, kotak hitam semua dalam bentuk mini-lp tu. Tu kat Ebay berlambak China punya. 
So kalau kata kita beli ngan harga murah giler, kita tahu tu pirated. Tapi kalau kita ingat kita beli ngan harga mahal tapi rupanya tu fake. Rugi la.

Macam Russia punya lain, terang2 dorang punya memang bukan original pasal Original tak wujud dan tak secantik design Russian packaging.
China ialah tiru bulat2, mengkonfiuskan orang.

Quality? Apa aku tahu China nye pirates pun boleh buat roda Led Zeppelin III berpusing. LOL!!
Soundwise, I think depends on preference individu la. Aku cakap ni semua packaging je.

Halus Giler OK, tapi still tengok dekat2 zoom, memang timbul ok huruf2 ni semua kat sampul belakang dia.

Pada aku memang terbaik la sapa yang buat benda ni.

Orang Melayu kalau sebut blackout - jadi "Ble Kaut".

Klaus Meine sebut - "BLACK"     "OUT".

haha.  

Apa pun macam album2 Scorpions yang lain sebelum dekad 90an bermula, semua lagu pun gerek dan enjoy dengar terutama Blackout, Cant Live Without You, NO ONE LIKE YOU!!!, YOU GIVE ME ALL I NEED!!, Dynamite!!, Arizona, China White,  When The Smoke Is Going Down..

EH?? Satu album tu hahaha.

Korang tahu kan?? Lagu WHEN THE SMOKE IS GOING DOWN ni, korang boleh pakai untuk persembahan Dikir Barat.

OK OK aku stop, JANGAN LAHAR AKU!!!!!!!!!

Blackout.. 
A famous album with some very famous songs, and some not so famous songs.

But it doesnt matter because every song is nice.

The album is short, about 36 minutes.

- I start listening to the rips on my headphones, 
- while walking to the bus stop. 
- I wait for the bus. 
- Then I took the bus. 
- And when I reach my destination. 
- The last song is over. LOL!!!!

ENJOY PHOTOS OF THIS PACKAGING.

THE ARTS are amazing. I believe it must have been some kind of contest in Japan in the early 80s, and the nicest artworks got into the packaging. Probably I think.
