Wamono Disco: Nippon Columbia Disco & Boogie Hits 1978-1982 LP
NEW. SEALED.
Light in the Attic Records
In the mid-seventies, discotheques were booming in Tokyo and all over Japan. When the Fatback Band topped the 1975 US charts with their infectious âDo The Bus Stopâ hit, Japanese label Victor put out the following year the first Japan made Disco tune with âSexy Bus Stopâ, released under the mysterious name Dr. Dragon & Oriental Express, a pseudonym for successful Japanese pop composer Kyohei Tsutsumi. âSexy Bus Stopâ became an instant hit in the country and, taking this opportunity, various Japanese record companies started releasing Disco music. From 1976 until the early 1980s the music was often recorded by skilled studio musicians, rather than by computer input, providing a really solid sound to the dancefloor. Disco music was also spreading into TV series, commercials and anime. From Godiegoâs monster hit âThe Birth Of The Odyssey - Monkey Magicâ to Pink Parachuteâs obscure (and excellent!) âDisco Great Tokyoâ tune, this selection explores some of the finest Disco and Boogie music released on the legendary Nippon Columbia label in the late seventies and early eighties. Are you ready? Put your dance shoes on, and enjoy!
