Comments:
Japan Original Pressing.
A clean, synth-tinted City Pop/AOR set written, produced, and arranged by Masamichi Sugi himself. Brass punches are shaped by Kazuo Ohtani, while string colors on the B-side are handled by Akira Inoue—those two touches give the record its sleek, cinematic lift. The sequence moves from bright, danceable AOR (“Show Goes On,” “Sunny Boy,” “Oh Candy”) to breezy mid-tempo cuts and smooth ballads; several intros land with tight drum/guitar figures that are sample-friendly and easy to loop. If you’re filing next to early-80s urban groove with glossy keyboards and precise rhythm guitars, this sits right there.

About the Condition
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.
