Akiko Yano - Tadaima (1981) [1991]

Cover - Manga illustration
with Ryuichi Sakamoto and Yukihiro Takahashi. Haruomi Hosono on one track which has the arrangement credited to Yellow Magic Orchestra. Also Tsuchiya, Omura, Matsutake.
PR: Ryuichi Sakamoto and Yukihiro Takahashi on most tracks, all of YMO on one - Harusakikobeni. Harusakikobeni (AY) - all of YMO play - this was a big hit earlier in the year and I suspect was an out-take from "Gohan" they decided to put out as a single. Has also been remixed by Satoshi Tomiie for a re-issue earlier in 1997. I Sing (RS) Synth pop number sung in English. Ashkenazy Who? (AY - another synth number worth consideration)
