Hosono, Haruomi
Tropical Dandy (indie)
180 gram blue vinyl version.
Marking 50 years since its original release, Stones Throw Records reissue of Haruomi Hosono's 1975 album Tropical Dandy
is the first edition of this record to be released outside of Japan. 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.
Described by none other than Van Dyke Parks as "cinematic romance with sonic texture" Tropical Dandy is available on
black or limited edition Ocean Blue 180-gram vinyl, pressed in the US featuring exclusive OBI and a new translation of
Haruomi Hosono's 1975 liner notes.
