Comments

Japan Original Pressing.

Late-night Japanese vocal pop with a faint funk-soul undertow and grown-up city shadows.

Mokuyouza feels like the kind of record that sits just outside ordinary kayōkyoku. Akiko Nakamura, already a veteran singer and actress by this point, brings a voice with history in it, and that weight changes the album. The mood is stylish but not glossy, closer to late-night vocal pop with a slight funk-soul pull than to bright mainstream pop, and that restraint is exactly what gives it character.

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.
