A severely underrated release by Tatsuro. This album have some of the most beautiful arrangements I ever heard, 永遠のFull Moon is the prime example, the complex layering of different instruments and harmonics combine with Tatsuro's vocal, created an almost opera/orchestra like experience.
The album was cut at a much lower volume compared to other Tatsuro releases; because the tracks were way too long and complex to cut loud. It's a testament to the noise floor performance of the entire system, and also how well the cartridge will pick up the low level signals. On my system, it has a very lush sound, yet incredibly clean, smooth and transparent.
Music: 5/5 (Masterpiece)
Sound: 4.5/5 (Excellent)
Sleeve: 4/5 (Good, As Expected For A Japan Release)
Equipment: Technics SL-1200MK3, Technics EPC-205CII + Jico SAS/B, Schiit Mani 2 -
Just got a copy with this on the run off:

Curious if anyone else has this one? -
I own a copy of this in vinyl and everything looks and sounds the same as it should. except the stamping on side A says AIR 8001A 111 which is different from the one recorded in the notes of this album.
Anyone knows if there's a difference? Could mine possibly be knockoff?
