Album Rating: 5.0

Album Rating: 5.0

I dropped $200 for the Shouso Strip vinyl on the Japanese Yahoo auctions. One day I'll have KZK.



Ringo has kind of fallen off the radar in the last couple years. She's been doing a lot of song/ad tie ins which are lame. I hope she comes back with a legit album soon. Her live concert recordings are always gold, though.



People who like Ringo migrated to Seiko Oomori. She has some solid albums, but her fanbase gets on my nerves.

Tried to sign up for Jap Yahoo! Auctions and it's confusing because of the requirements regarding area codes and whatnot

Album Rating: 5.0

I did a workaround through a website called Buyee. They'll bid on the auction for you. Made it simple. http://buyee.jp

Concerning this one, I've found a couple on Ebay and Discogs and will probably go for them once the holidays are past, or unless one under 300 pops up, when that happens.

Album Rating: 5.0

But knowing my luck lately with some recent discoveries, a reissue would be imminent (see: Supercar's catalogue being reissued for their 20th anniversary; Loveless getting reissued, although - although it's something I've known for years, I only really came around to it in the past few months.)



I hope.

Album Rating: 5.0

I don't expect it, honestly. The only time it received that treatment was during a collection called MORA, when her three albums were remastered.

Articles like this and the announcement that Sony resumed production in Japan make a bit optimistic, plus I'd imagine there's some sort of demand for it

Plus, that set was close to ten years ago and a few more years before the vinyl revival.
