Hosono, Haruomi - Tropical Dandy (50Th Anniversary Edition)

The first-ever international reissue of his 1975 album, 'Tropical Dandy'. 'Tropical Dandy' is the cult classic album that marked Hosono’s shift toward genre-blending, fusing exotica, jazz, and pop to lay the groundwork for Japanese City Pop. “I’ve orbited around [Hosono] for light years during his pan-Pacific musical adventures. Cinematic romance with sonic texture.” – Van Dyke Parks
