In My Life [29:59] Arranged by Yuzo Hayashi Ripped/scanned by me, scan fixing by Smithdanigans Released in 1986, this contains synth/funk cover rearrangements of various songs from non-JP artists. The arrangements on this album are honestly pretty banging!! I admittedly haven't listened to this in a while before I got my CD copy but I found myself listening to "Memories Of You" very frequently, it's just so relaxing. I don't have any complaints about the music itself but the only complaint I do have is that this is criminally short—would have been nice if they could have added in more tracks... The only rip of this album online was a very shitty vinyl rip—I secured a CD copy months ago since it didn't seem like anybody else was gonna rip it soon, but because I was also under the assumption that this album wasn't going to get a remastered release any time soon. After having finally gotten the album, ripping it, and scanning it this month... I found out it finally got a two-disc remastered release last month 🙃 Despite the album finally now being more accessible than ever via said two-disc release, nobody has still publically ripped it online yet, to my knowledge. I'm sure the remastered version sounds much better than the OG 80s CD pressing I got, but I'm still deciding to upload my rip of the old pressing regardless since the vinyl rip is in huge need of a replacement anyways. Nevertheless, enjoy!
