YOUR FRIEND [47:22] Ripped/scanned by me, scan fixes by Kaleia78 A bit of an elusive album of sorts. Originally released in 2005, this was Kurozumi's next album release—16 years after his "Pillow Talk" album was released in 1989. Currently this is Kurozumi's latest music release but he himself has not yet retired from the music industry as he still performs live to this day every once in a while. The version in this video is the "Revised Edition", released in 2012. I think this is supposed to be a remaster over the 2005 release but I have no clue. This version contains two extra tracks not originally present in the OG release, however. I had known about this album's existence for a while many years ago—I assumed somebody had already ripped & posted it but to my knowledge nobody has still publicly done it yet as of me posting this. Furthermore, neither the OG nor the remastered versions seem to be easy to find too! The remaster was the only release I could find a copy of when I bought this years ago—it wasn't being sold anywhere else. Maybe that's changed now, but I haven't bothered checking. Having said that: what do I think of this album? Unfortunately I didn't like it. It's not a bad album—if you're a huge fan of mellow music and AOR in general then I think you might take a liking to this. Personally I just didn't think the compositions were all that interesting and the arrangement didn't stand out either. I did appreciate how Kurozumi re-visited "Lusia" from his first "Again" album and made a new cover of it, but ultimately I think I'd still prefer listening to the original version any day of the week. Regardless, enjoy.
