This is me being (actually) autistic over my favourite albums so don't expect any actual criticism
expect a cohesive, well put together critique which qualifies as fair use under the U.S. Copyright Act 1976 section 107

All of Me | Masayoshi Takanaka | 1979 | City pop, fusion, jazz-funk, disco |
☞ Oh! Tengo Suerte ☞ トーキョー レギー (Tokyo Reggie) ☞ Sweet Agnes ☞ 憧れのセーシェル諸島 (Longing for the Seychelles islands) ☞ I Remember You ☞ 伊豆甘夏納豆売り (Izu Amantasu Natto Vendor) ☞ Tropic Birds ☞ Brasilian Skies ☞ Mambo No.5 ☞ E.S.P. ☞ Star Wars Samba ☞ Sexy Dance ☞ Malibu ☞ Ready to Fly |
Masayoshi Takanaka's magnum opus compilation album of his greatest (just at that time!) songs since his solo career debut with Seychelles (1976).
This album and the season of summer are the same thing. In fact I am inclined to say summer was invented in 1979 specifically for this album. |

Flying Beagle | Himiko Kikuchi | 1987 | City pop, fusion, jazz-funk, smooth jazz |
☞ Look Your Back! ☞ A Seagull & Clouds ☞ Flying Beagle ☞ Fluffy ☞ Sand Storm ☞ Baby Talk ☞ The Second Summer ☞ Ducky Ducky |
So fun! funky! aaa! As the album progresses you may notice the impending feeling of joy as the Beagle approaches closer and closer to your approximate location. And then you play and have fun :3 Forget The Beatles. The BEAGLES is all I need haha get it haha |

The Rainbow Goblins | Masayoshi Takanaka | 1981 | Fusion, jazz, rock, psyschedelic rock |
☞ Prologue ☞ Once Upon a Song ☞ Seven Goblins ☞ The Sunset Valley ☞ The Moon Rose ☞ Soon ☞ Magical Night Light ☞ Rainbow Paradise ☞ Thunderstorm ☞ Rising Arch ☞ Just Chuckle ☞ Rainbow was Reborn ☞ Plumed Bird ☞ You Can Never Come To This Place |
This is the album that introduced me to Masayoshi Takanaka's music! It is a whimsical experience, about 7 goblins out to steal the rainbow!!! Based on Count Ul del Rico's stunning 1977 picture book of the same name. Warning on 'Prologue': British voice jumpscare (Roy Garner) |

I have a lot to say about this album and Pink Floyd in general. But I'm not entirely sure how to articulate that. For now: AAAaAAA AAAAAAAAAA aAAAAAAA AAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA |
