A year in Japanese pop as heard by King Records' house orchestras: the Takeshi Harada Group, the King Orchestra and the Leon Pops Orchestra dividing the hits of 1971 between them across two discs. King's approach was slightly brasher than Victor's, more brass, a rock drummer where Victor would have used a jazz one, and the year's material (the height of the group sounds aftermath and the first idol singers) suits it.
"Jumbo" was the word of the year, the 747 having just begun flying into Haneda. Japanese King pressing, gatefold.
