1978 · THE LISTENING ROOM

TSUBASA O KUDASAI

Time Five

The review

Japan's five-part vocal group brings jazz and fusion colors to familiar melodies. Neil Sedaka's romantic writing sits comfortably beside their own nimble chorus work. Their precise ensemble gives even the lightest arrangement unusual depth.
