War – Platinum Jazz
Label: LAX Records – AW-9003~4, LAX Records – AW-9003, LAX Records – AW-9004
This Japanese double vinyl is amazing. Not a lot of folks have heard it. Highly recommended- This is the correct runout on Variant 2 as my copy, however, mine does not have "- black font used for circular edge-of-the-label information"
No text at all around edge 
Its not a rarity at all so whats up with the highest and median price?
I got this for $15 at a local record store there’s no way someone copped this for 2 stacks that’s wild. Unless it was signed by every member or something.
damn why was this sold for such a high price? that can't be right- I have a version of this imported to the UK that has record sides Disc 1 sides 1 and 4, Disc 2 sides 2 and 3. Don't know if is a commonplace.
Bad Ass... Platinum Jazz!referencing Platinum Jazz (CD, Compilation) 74321 30524 2
I have a Cd with this barcode and with all this tracks but made in the EC.
