1982 · THE LISTENING ROOM
NIAGARA TRIANGLE Vol.2
Motoharu Sano, Masamichi Sugi & Eiichi Ohtaki
The review
One of the greatest collaborations in Japanese pop history. Each contributor brought out a competitive streak, and their signature work gathered in one place without reservation. Sano, the 'Lion,' fires up his challenge to the wall of sound on A4, while Sugi's 'Baby Talk' confronts it with his own ultimate resort pop on A7. Ohtaki closes the whole work with the exceptionally transparent slow number B5, a magnificent 'Each.' He then takes a step back, watching the younger artists grow. And when might Vol.3 be born?
