Kyoko Koizumi - Koizumi In The House LP (Black Vinyl)

Released just two months after her hit debut single “Friday Chinatown,” Yasuha’s 1981 first album is a showcase of her own compositions, paired with lyrics by Toyohisa Araki and Junko Yamao. The arrangements—handled by Akira Inoue, Megumi Wakakusa, and Tatsumi Yano/Yasuha—are brought to life by an all-star lineup including Tatsuo Hayashi, Nobu Saito, Tsuyoshi Kon, Masaki Matsubara, and Fujimaru Yoshino.

Featuring her signature track “Friday Chinatown,” the disco-tinged “Bye-Bye Lover,” and the smooth ballad “Remember Summertime,” this ten-song release remains a defining classic of the city pop era. Originally issued in 1981.
