We Are Guild 9

[Machine Translation] Celebrating the 30th anniversary of his debut! Newly recorded with the latest best songs including big hits such as "The Ballad of You" and "Lodgeless"! This is a collection of self cover songs by Masanori Sera, who has been pushing Japanese rock music to the forefront since his debut in 1977. The songs include "Your Ballad" (Oricon No. 6), "Gunsnake" (No. 1 in 1978, the first year of The Best Ten), and "Shukunashi" (No. 3), which were popular songs on the "The Best Ten" and "Oricon" charts at the time and are still popular on karaoke programs today. The songs are perfect for those who were in their teens and twenties 30 years ago (late thirties to baby boomers). In addition, the band has re-recorded some of their recent works with a focus on their live favorites. The band features old friends and allies who have been active in music for 30 years, such as Yoshio Nomura on guitar, Tetsuo Sakurai on bass (ex-Cassiopeia), and Muneyuki Kamimoto on keyboards (Twist), which creates a more relaxed atmosphere and makes for a more thrilling game play as they get to know each other. The vocal style is still active, but the time they have spent on the road has given them a cool, mature rock style.
