Description:

The ultimate Takao Horiuchi analog record best. Takao Horiuchi, who formed "Alice" with Shinji Tanimura and Toru Yazawa in 1971, and later worked as a solo singer, will celebrate his 50th anniversary as a singer in 2021 with the release of the STEREO SOUND ANALOG RECORD COLLECTION by STEREO SOUND PLATINUM Co. (This album was released as STEREO SOUND ANALOG RECORD COLLECTION by STEREO SOUND PLANNING CO. (LP record / 180g weight disc / 33 1/3rpm / STEREO) The sound was carefully adjusted for cutting at the Nippon Columbia cutting studio in Minami-Azabu, Tokyo, using a custom-made analog console with integrated technology and Shigeru Takezawa's first-class skills and sensitivity. The 180g weight vinyl records were pressed at Toyo Kasei Co. Ltd. and pressed.The album includes 10 of Takao Horiuchi's best songs from the 1980's and 1990's, mainly from the Kohaku Uta Gassen, including the hit song "Koika" (Love Song), which won the Japan Record Award and the Japan Cable Broadcasting Award in 1990, as well as six major awards at music festivals including the All Japan Cable Broadcasting Award Grand Prix. It was the first theme song for the TV Asahi detective drama "Hagure Keisatsu Junjoha" starring Makoto Fujita, and "Like when I was a kid," which was the first song to appear in the 39th NHK Kohaku Uta Gassen. Koibun," released in 1991, is the theme song for NTV's year-end drama "Minamoto no Yoshitsune," and "Distant, Steam Whistle," a big hit from the Alice era, was newly recorded in 2006 in a gospel version with a new arrangement. The impressive breadth of space and precision of the sound is an overwhelming amount of information that only record reproduction can provide.Filled with passionate energy, Takao Horiuchi's voice shakes the soul and causes deep emotion and resonance, and you will be keenly aware of its compatibility with high-quality records that bring out the best of his charms!
