Description

[Machine Translation] ( * Encore pressing; will ship after August 3, 2024 as soon as it arrives. ) Released in 1981. This long-awaited reissue of this album has been long awaited due to the recent city pop boom, and now it is available on color vinyl! Featuring a splendid lineup including Kenji Iwakura, Kenji Omura, and Jun Aoyama, this album faithfully reproduces the popular West Coast sound of the time and features lyrics written by the artist himself, making it a strongly artist-oriented album that breaks away from idol music. The straightforward, unpretentious voice of the singer, who has matured into an adult, can be heard on the current scene without any sense of discomfort. This product is eligible for CITY POP on VINYL 2024, and will be delivered on or after the day of release.

A Sweet Surprise! 5

Admittedly, I bought this album for "Sweet Joke," but side B was a sweet surprise for me! While side A is perfectly fine, with the exception of "Sweet Joke," I found the style to be not quite the city pop feel I was looking for...but then I flipped the record and found exactly what I was looking for! From the opening drum fill of "Cafe B.H" to the ballad "New," I experienced a new appreciation of Yuki Okazaki's music. In fact, I find myself going straight to side B right after "Sweet Joke." There are many opinions about what qualifies as "city pop," but the second half of this album, I feel, captures the nostalgia and somewhat melancholy-tinged joy that drew me to the genre in the first place. In all, "So Many Friends" should be a part of your city pop collection--even if just for side B.
