Produktbeschreibung

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. An Obi strip is traditionally a strip of paper looped around the left side or folded over the top of Japanese or other LP albums. Obi strips are also found folded over the left side of music CDs, video games, laserdiscs, DVDs and even on the covers of books when they are sold new. The Japanese word "Obi" refers to the traditional sash or belt worn with a kimono. The features of the obi strip include the title of the product usually in phonetic Japanese or other language, the track listings, other information such as price, catalog number and information on related releases or artists from that same record company. The obi strip''s main purpose was so that consumers knew what the contents of the album were and for the store owner to use for re-ordering. Back when vinyl was the main medium for recorded music, most new records in Japan were packaged with obi strips on them which of course had the title and all the other info, but on the back there was a tab with the catalog number that the store owner or cashier would cut off when it was sold to a customer so he would know what to re-order.
