Gotta love some Shonentai😌 One of the best debut singles ever! Out of the many Showa-era boy bands, they're probably my favourite.

A staple compilation for any Showa-era record collection. 😌

(and i'm not just saying that because i'm obsessed with akina🤭)

I only discovered Megumi Shiina last year, and what an honour it's been, by far one of the most touching and powerful voices from the time and still going strong.

For years now I've loved making fanmade cover art for music I enjoy.

Here's a new one - a 7" single cover for songs from Naoko Kawai's 1987 "JAPAN as waterscapes", "黒髪にアマリリス" as the A-side and "桜の闇に振り向けば" as the B-side. It's not my best work, but I love this picture of Naoko-san and had to use it!

First collection post!! ^ ^

北駅のソリチュード is one of my absolute favourite Naoko songs. It's such a good representation of her transition from idol to artist, as they say.

I really wish Akemi Ishii is more than a one-hit wonder, she has an incredible voice.

Good Luck（サヨナラは言わない）is hands down one of my favourite power ballads 😌

千里さん、お誕生日おめでとうございます！

Today is Chisato Moritaka's 56th birthday!! 🥳

(I don't have a lot of her stuff since her records are super expensive and I'm broke, but that doesn't stop a boy from dreaming😌)

Hi! :D

I'm Vic, I'm 22 and from South Africa. I fell in love with 80s Japanese music (and Japan in general) a few years ago and haven't looked back since.

I collect showa-era records/cds and I'm just generally obsessed with anything kayo-related. Thought I'd make a bsky account :)
