Comments:

Japan Original Pressing.

A luminous late-’70s singer-songwriter debut—clear voice, mellow folk-pop contours, and Masataka Matsutoya’s elegant arrangements that leave air around every melody.

From the wistful breeze of “Koto Meguri” and “Tōi Jōkei,” through the mellow title tune “Sono Ai Ni,” to the dusky “Last Scene…Sayonara,” the album moves like small city sketches. Matsutoya’s keys/strings colour without crowding—classic, unshowy, and deeply listenable.

About the Condition

Grade Description
S (Sealed) Still sealed in factory wrap. Never played.
M (Mint) Perfect condition. Looks unplayed with no signs of use. Typically used for records that are brand new or opened but never played.
EX (Excellent) Very clean. May have light scuffs or hairline marks, but plays perfectly.
VG+ (Very Good Plus) Minor wear, light surface noise, no major flaws — a solid average used copy.
VG (Very Good) Visible wear and surface noise. Plays through without skipping.
G+ (Good Plus) Heavily used. Significant wear or scratches, but still playable.

+ / − may be added to indicate slight variations (e.g. VG+, EX−).

We visually inspect every record, and we clean each one before shipping (play-testing when needed). Even new or great-looking vinyl—especially some Japanese pressings—can have light background noise. We grade carefully by eye and ear, but it’s still a human call, so please check the notes before buying.
