Yoko Kanno / Steve Conte CDs

[vizhater]

The Kanno songs featuring Steve Conte are some of my all-time favorites and I want to own the official CDs featuring them. Does anyone know where I can buy them? I see some on Amazon marketplace and Ebay but I'm aware that those are notorious for selling bootleg/unlicensed Japanese CDs and I'm not exactly sure how to spot the fakes.

The ones I want are...

"Heaven's Not Enough" -Wolf's Rain OST 2
"Call Me Call Me" -Cowboy Bebop OST 3- Blue
"Living Inside The Shell" -Stand Alone Complex OST 2

Also, I want

"One Reason" from Deadman Wonder Band feat. Fade

so I'm just gonna throw that in here too instead of making another thread.

Isn't Blue still in print?

Also you could always check the catalog number in photos for ebay. You'll just have to do a quick search of it beforehand if you don't already know it.

Alright thanks, good strategy. I looked up the numbers and it seems like all of them except for the Wolf's Rain one (and all of those on ebay ARE fake according to the number, so you saved me from a big headache there too) are still available without resorting to ebay.

Since that seems to be the case, is "cdjapan" a good place to order them from?

Yeah, I use them pretty regularly.

I think from what I've gathered though, Amazon Japan is better for larger orders. But I haven't really used them yet without it being through a proxy service, from what I remember.


Not too sure where it'd fall with CDs, but you could always just do the orders on both Amazon Japan and CDJapan without actually finalizing it. Then compare the costs with shipping included.
