Rhythm Of The Rain

This release is a real puzzle. The content is the same as a 1971 Japanese release with the number P-8150W but the number on this copy is WS 4741. The vinyl is pressed in Singapore. Problem is the only releases of this album with the number WS 4741 are a Singapore release with a different cover design and a Philippines release with the same cover design. This cannot be the 1979 Singapore release numbered WS 4741 as the track sequence is different to that release (see Discogs r7068665) and the cover design is totally different. Neither the cover or the vinyl were produced in the Philippines so it is not that release either (see Discogs r5972138). There is no known Japanese release from 1979 with the number WS 4741. Despite all the above conflicting information what we have here is a Japanese cover with a copyright date of 1971 but the number is WS 4741 (not P-8150W) and it comes with an insert in Japanese which also shows the number WS 4741. This cover contains a disc pressed in Singapore numbered WS 4741 with a copyright date of 1979 but a different track order to the known Singapore release from that year (see Discogs r7068665). It is not usual for a Singapore release to have a cover and insert from Japan, and it is even stranger that there seem to be two different pressings of the Singapore release numbered WS 4741 with different track sequences. The track sequence on this one matches a 1971 Japanese release (but that release has a different number).
