What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

The description says Continental was released in Japan in 1997 and made available on CD outside Japan in 2009, while the listing identifies one disc and a vinyl category. The format and release details for this particular listing are therefore not fully confirmed. It also claims the album has never been reissued, which is inconsistent with the stated later CD availability. Confirm the supplied edition and format before buying.

What release history does the description give?
