Comments

Japan Original Pressing.

A quintessential 1983 Japanese coastal City Pop album — crystal-clear vocals, sophisticated AOR arrangements and a bittersweet summer atmosphere from beginning to end.

The debut album that established the unmistakable sound of S. Kiyotaka & Omega Tribe. Built around Tetsuji Hayashi’s sophisticated songwriting and arrangements, Aqua City blends smooth AOR, breezy funk and polished coastal pop with Kiyotaka Sugiyama’s crystal-clear voice.

Beyond the classic “Summer Suspicion,” deeper cuts such as “Midnight Down Town,” “Umikaze Tsushin” and “Alone Again” bring together shimmering guitars, warm keyboards and a beautifully bittersweet late-summer mood.

An essential ’80s Japanese City Pop album with atmosphere to spare.

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.

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.
