This is the only album by Takako Mamiya released in 1982 (40th anniversary!) and a masterpiece representing city pop in the 80's. It is now available on hybrid SACD with direct DSD mastering back to the original masters. The SACD layer contains flat-transferred DSD sound from the original 1/4" analog masters, which can be played on an SACD player to bring out the full atmosphere of the sound of the era contained in the master tapes. The CD layer contains a remastered version of the above DSD converted to 16bit/44.1kHz PCM. Although not as detailed as the SACD, which has superior specifications, the natural and rich dynamic range of the master sound can be heard even when played on an ordinary CD player.
