Description
Tatsuro Yamashita's tunes, deeply rooted in his RCA/AIR YEARS work, have been a summertime staple in many cities, beaches, and mountains. Clocking in at 40 minutes, the vinyl version of this album captures the very essence of Tatsuro's signature sound, making this release an everlasting classic.
A remarkable City Pop record that encapsulated the technological progress of its day. 1982: improvements to car stereos and Walkman devices permitted music to feature decent sound quality during transit. Accordingly, the album was crafted and marketed with a resort pop atmosphere in mind, even going so far as to create the catchphrase "Summer, the sea, Tatsuro!". From Sparkle to Your Eyes, this indefatigable classic mirrors the spirit of Tatsuro's music.
