A unique voice and a unique experience Customer Review Rated Bad 8 - 8 out of 10
Talk about a step back in time! This collection of hits from Akiko Wada spans her career from 1968 to 1994. There are even two tracks in mono! This album presents the listener mostly with a trip through the state of pop in 60’s and 70’s Japan, which I found to be surprisingly close to what you would expect of American music from the same era. If you don’t know, Akiko has a very deep voice for a female singer, but matched with the raspiness she has, it’s one that sounds particularly well-suited to the soul genre which she usually works in. However, this is not the only mode in which Akiko works. Many of her songs are also more on the blues side. Because of this mixture, there are a lot of tracks on this album with a good amount of energy, relying mostly on a good brass accompaniment. If you want something different from the mainstream, I’d pick this one up. You might be surprised by how much you can still enjoy “old style” music. Favorites on this one were Donshaburi No Ame No Naka De, Crying Baby, Watashi Yume O Miro No, Umi Ni Nare, Last Metro, and Manatsu No Yoru No 23ji.
