CIRCUS TOWN

Amazon Review

This is Tatsuro Yamashita's first solo album, released in 1976 after his time with Sugar Babe and Niagara Triangle Vol. 1. He carefully selected his staff to faithfully recreate the sound of his original project, resulting in overseas recording in New York and Los Angeles. The album fully conveys his "good-natured attention to detail" with top-notch musicians in the right positions. It's a masterpiece that serves as a compass pointing to the origins and direction of "Tatsuro Pop." (Haruno Maruo)
