Taeko Tomioka

Featuring: Ryuichi Sakamoto

First time on vinyl. One of the earliest work by Ryuichi Sakamoto. The album released in 1976 is the only work left behind as a singer by Taeko Tomioka, who is also known as a poet. The iconic album jacket photographed by renowned Japanese photographer Nobuyoshi Araki is undoubtedly one of the factors that make this album special. It is too avant-garde and fantastical to be simply called psychedelic, a masterpiece of madness that distorts the listener's sense of balance. The music production was handled by Ryuichi Sakamoto, who was still a student at the time, making it a valuable piece as one of his earliest recordings.
