BON JOVI-SLIPPERY WHEN WET

This is an original  Japanese pressing bought by myself when I lived in Japan.  This is the banned cover only found on early Japanese pressings.  Check out the racy pic!  There are various stories about this cover.  One version is that it was too racy for US release.  Another is that Bon Jovi didn't like the pink cover and had it changed before the US release.  Either way, it was only released in Japan early on and is therefore pretty rare.  This copy comes with the original obi and nice fold-out insert in Japanese and English.  I sold one of these a few weeks ago.  This is my second and LAST copy.  Don't miss this chance!

About Me
Some of you may remember me from when I went by the username "timinjapan."  Well, I'm no longer in Japan.  I'm in the US and selling off most of the CDs and records I collected over 5 years of living in Japan.  This is your chance to get some great Japanese pressings (all original Japanese pressings, no cheap Chinese knockoffs or bootlegs) with US shipping prices!  See my feedback and bid with confidence.
