Hi-fi Set / Hi-Fi Blend
Comments:
Japan Original Pressing. 1977 City Pop harmony — Hi-Fi Set’s classic blend.
Hi-Fi Blend (1977) stands as a versatile collection showcasing Hi-Fi Set’s early-era vocal elegance and Yumi Arai collaborations. Among the standout tracks, “Sky Restaurant” is the clear fan favorite with the highest listener count on Last.fm, followed by “Farewell Party” and the emotive “Tsumetai Ame (Hi-Fi Blend Version)”. This blend of lush harmonies and polished arrangements foreshadows the City Pop and harmony-pop trends that would define Japan’s late ’70s sound.

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.
