[1983] Masahiro Ikumi (幾見雅博) - uLAyasu || Full Vinyl Rip

https://www.discogs.com/Masahiro-Ikumi-uLAyasu/release/8794567 Tracklist: (1) Say, My Love [0:00] (2) Urayasu Seawind [3:51] (3) Sunset Blvd [8:29] (4) Morning Breeze ~ Daylight [14:42] (5) Coral Island [19:56] (6) Goodby To The Blues [23:47] (7) Area Code 0473 [29:42] (8) Angel Is Sleepin' [33:54] Fun fact: "uLAyasu" is actually a nickname of Ikumi's 😂 Anyways...if the name "Masahiro Ikumi" rings a bell to you, you may recognize him as the one who composed the music for the 90s psychological horror anime "Perfect Blue". Unfortunately that seems to be what most people know him for, especially more so since the movie had a US vinyl re-issue a few years back... If you REALLY know Masahiro Ikumi well enough...that OST doesn't do justice to truly show others what he's really good at the most. In the 80s he was a session guitarist for a good number of Japanese pop/jazz albums, and a composer of jazz/rock/fusion tracks for several albums. He also did the music for the 80s mecha show "Powered Armor Dorvack"---in fact, track 7's first half is pretty much what the music of Dorvack sounds like. "uLAyasu" was Ikumi's first solo album, and features a couple of notable Japanese musicians: -Shuichi "Ponta" Murakami -Junichi Kanezaki -Pecker -Etsuko Yamakawa -Hiroshi Ogasawara (helped produce the album & arranged some tracks) ...Just to name a few. Unfortunately this LP never got a CD release, although it's not hard to find luckily. The current album rip on YT is in low-quality so I humbly present to you all a higher-quality rip of the album. Enjoy!!
