Comments:

Japan Original Pressing. Promotional Copy! 

Sleek, late-80s city-funk—silky keys, tight mid-tempo cruise, club-ready polish.

Released May 25, 1987 on Alfa, Future File is Hiroshi Sato’s seventh studio album—self-produced/arranged, with West-Coast firepower across the rhythm section: John “JR” Robinson (drums), Jun Aoyama (drums), Nathan East and Bobby Watson (bass), Paul Jackson Jr. and Yuji Toriyama (guitars), plus Lynn Davis on vocals. The set balances radio-polished pop (“Find Your Life,” “Together”) with deeper club-leaning cuts (“Fly To You,” “Funky Multi”), giving DJs clean count-ins and steady mid-tempo grids. First issues appeared on LP/CD in Japan (e.g., ALR-28095 / 32XA-158), later reissued with bonus mixes (“Sweet Inspiration” extended versions).

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.
