Comments:

Japan Original Pressing.

Needle-drop and it’s skyline time—New York-cut, Japan-all-star. Shigeru Suzuki, Masaki Matsubara, Kenji Omura, Tsunehide Matsuki, and Kazumasa Akiyama trade lines over airtight NYC rhythm sections: crisp drumkit, rubbery bass, Fender Rhodes and brass that hit like sunset on 6th Ave. Tempos move from mid-tempo city-groove to urgent jazz-funk chases, with several clean 4-bar intros and open drum/percussion turnarounds that are pure sample-bait. Audiophile “Master Sound” press gives it glassy highs and deep, quiet floors—turn it up and let the streets glow.

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.
