Yumi Matsutoya / Before The Diamond Dust Fades......
Comments:
Japan Original Pressing.Synclavier-era winter soundtrack—the title track beside “Sweet Dreams” and “Tuxedo Rain.”
On “Before The Diamond Dust Fades……,” Yumi Matsutoya cools her urban pop into a crisp, cinematic glide. Synclavier-driven production under Masataka Matsutoya frames first-call players—Masaki Matsubara on guitars, John Robinson on drums, and Abraham Laboriel on bass—with Jake H. Conception’s sax and Nobu Saito’s percussion adding color. The title track shimmers like winter night air, while “Sweet Dreams” and “Tuxedo Rain” balance radio-ready lift and midnight romance.

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.
