The legendary masterpiece "For You" by Tatsuro Yamashita is arguably ranked as the number one album in the genre known as "City Pop." Recently, a remastered edition of For You was reissued in Japan, but this one is undoubtedly the original pressing! After the release of the remastered edition, the price of the original pressing has skyrocketed even further. The exceptional sound quality that can only be found in the original pressing is truly remarkable.
The iconic album "REQUEST" by Mariya Takeuchi needs no introduction. It stands shoulder to shoulder with "VARIETY" as an extraordinary work, boasting immense popularity worldwide. In Japan, it is traded at incredibly high prices. Recently, it has been frequently used in DJ play, making it increasingly difficult to find copies in EX condition.
Speaking of Tatsuro Yamashita, "RIDE ON TIME" is a significant album. It is said that the success of this song allowed him to dedicate more time to creating the masterpiece "For You." This dedication is undoubtedly reflected in the album's quality. While a remastered edition of "RIDE ON TIME" has been released in Japan, this one is an original press. The sound quality of the original press is simply top-notch and incomparable.
Anri's "Timely!" also enjoys immense popularity and is traded at high prices in Japan. It is an album that needs no further explanation, given its collection of iconic songs. Although a remastered edition will be released in July, this is the genuine original pressing.
