Silky smooth pop from Yuming Customer Review Rated Bad 9 - 9 out of 10
Yumi Matsutoya's albums always reward repeated playing. They initially may strike the listener as a bit too glossy and superficial. However, as one becomes more familiar with the work, the listener comes to appreciate the subtle power of Yumi's bittersweet vocals, the craftsmanship of her songwriting, and the beautiful marriage of husband Masataka's arranging and producing skills. Indeed, upon reflection, Yumi and Masataka Matsutoya make it seem almost effortless to create these sets of eleven or twelve songs of pure pop bliss.

"A Girl in Summer" is no exception. As usual, it runs the gamut from the frisky uptempo "Kanashimi no route 16" to the charming samba "Many is the time" to lovely minor key ballads like "Umi ni kite" and "Tsuiteyukuwa".

And Yumi is more than generous. On her albums, one doesn't find just a few hits up front, then lots of bland filler. Instead, there are gems to be found throughout this CD.

Very highly recommended by your humble servant.
