Hako Yamasaki – Tsunawatari

2023 Reissue.

Official reissue of the sophomore album from fabled folk singer-songwriter/actress/writer, and one of the most gorgeous voices of Japanese music, Hako Yamasaki, originally released in 1976 on the legendary Elec Records, one of the first independent labels in the country.

Tsunawatari is a perfect follow-up to her classic debut Tobimasu, immortalizing the bitter beauty of heartache with tearful performances and nostalgic empowerment.

Hako Yamasaki is considered a pioneer in both the creative boom and the rise of feminism of 1970s Japan.
