A Hidden Gem of 90s City Pop & Light Mellow — Yuki Saito’s 10th Album on Vinyl for the First Time!
Originally released in 1991, Yuki Saito’s 10th studio album finally makes its debut on LP, complete with an obi-strip edition. All lyrics were penned by Saito herself, brought to life through the masterful compositions and arrangements of Mioko Yamaguchi, MAYUMI, Akemi Kakihara, Kenjirō Sakiya, and other top creators of the era.
Blending Saito’s fragile yet deeply emotional songwriting with the miraculous chemistry of these celebrated arrangers, the album stands as a refreshing and overlooked treasure in the world of 90s City Pop and Light Mellow. Highlights include the driving girl-pop number (A2) powered by Seiji Kameda’s bass and Nobuo Eguchi’s crisp drums, a languid mid-tempo bossa nova tune (B4) perfectly suited to Saito’s smoky, ennui-laced vocals, and a hymn-like piano ballad (B5) — a reimagined version of Kenjirō Sakiya’s “Yume Meifu,” originally written for Tomoyo Harada.
With 11 tracks of exquisitely crafted pop songs infused with singer-songwriter sensitivity, this long-awaited vinyl pressing shines a light on one of Yuki Saito’s most intimate and refined works — a true hidden masterpiece waiting to be rediscovered.
