Unusual test record - legit?

Carpenters, Raymond Lefevre DY-4908-5 Japan QUADRAPHONIC, PROMO ONLY VINYL LP | eBay

Anyone seen this before? Looks professional but could be a boot.

Looks like a promo item, maybe within the company

 

[fredblue]

interesting find.. the style of label matches a Japanese King LP i have

Probably a in-store play promo special for selected hifi stores. Quite nice cover.

Looks legit to me. 20 years ago I would be trying to snipe that sucker!

I have doubts.

Awful lot of music in CD-4 on each side.

 

[Bob Romano]
