Comments

Japan Original Pressing.

A wild 1980 Akira Sakata vocal experiment, mixing spoken word, strange songs, rhythm-box grooves, and avant-jazz humor.

20 Personalities is not a standard jazz record, and that is exactly the point. Akira Sakata moves between singing, speech, comedy, rhythm-box sketches, and avant-garde vocal performance, turning the album into a strange one-man theatre of sound. It is playful, absurd, sometimes unsettling, and completely outside the usual Japanese jazz lane. A deep pick for listeners into experimental vocals, spoken word, leftfield jazz, and truly odd Wamono records.

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.
