I congratulate you on your rare taste.  Jade Warrior is a relatively 
unknown British rock group of the early seventies.  To my knowledge, 
they had six records released in the United States.  I own five of them. 
I have heard mention of another Vertigo disk simply called Jade Warrior. 
I have no idea if it truly exists, but, I would love to find a copy.

Anyway, the records that I have are as follows:

Released -- 1971 -- Vertigo Records
Last' Autumn's Dream -- 1972 -- Vertigo
Floating World -- 1974 -- Island Records
Waves -- 1975 -- Island
Kites -- 1976 -- Island

A friend of mine told me that Jade Warrior sounds like what would happen 
if King Crimson played music written for Jethro Tull.

If you have Kites, you have the most advanced of their albums.  My 
personal favorite is Floating World.  In any case, their Island 
pressings are much more interesting than the Vertigo ones.  The band 
changed some members for the better and adopted a more flowing style.
