'Sunshower' by Japanese artist Taeko Ohnuki. Released in 1977, 'Sunshower' is an early example of city pop, a Japan-specific genre from the late 70's and early 80's that's characterized by a fushion of pop, jazz, and funk music.

Artwork Regarding the cover artwork based on white, Japanese studies scholar Laurence Green of SOAS University of London described that there's something about the cover art that presents a quiet, comfortable confidence, resting pretty in a chic, distinctly Japanese minimalism of white, and its unadorned style has utterly modernist in outlook, and yet somehow also avante-garde, primitive in its simplicity.
