Product Description
Amazon Review: This is a newly remastered version of "GREATEST HITS OF TATSURO YAMASHITA" (released in 1982), a best-of album featuring selections from six albums released during his time on the RCA/AIR label. With additional tracks added, this is Yamashita's first best-of album, which he commented "I'm finally able to release in a proper form." It includes hit songs such as <1> (theme song for the Fuji TV drama "Long Love Letter ~Drifting Classroom~"), which was released as a single in 2002 20 years later, the upbeat tune <13> featuring collaborations with a stellar lineup including Murakami Shuichi and Hosono Haruomi, and the ballad <11> expressing feelings for a beloved. It also features rare versions that can only be heard on this album. The sophisticated pop sound conveys a deep commitment to music. (Mizuho Kitazaki) Media Reviews and Others: A best-of album released in July '82, featuring selections from six albums since his debut. Contains 15 tracks. (C)RS
