There are many so called 'orgel' CDs. These are instrumental versions of songs performed on a xylophone. Another description of the music would be to call it "yesteryear music box"... This CD is included into the discography as it appears to be the only one that: (a) is definitely geniuine (it's even called "avex official collection") and (b) contains only Ayumi songs. Some examples of other 'orgel' and similar CDs (with instrumental music) are presented below for the reference for those interested.

I am not 100% sure if the album below is an official release. It looks legitimate enough but the fact that it was produced by 'New York Records' is a bit suspicious. Any additional information will be very much appreciated.
