HARUOMI HOSONO - Tropical Dandy (50th Anniversary Edition) - LP - 'Ocean Blue' Colour Vinyl

LP - Limited 50th Anniversary Edition 'Ocean Blue' Colour Vinyl.

Marking 50 years since its original release, Stones Throw Records’ reissue of Haruomi
Hosono's 1975 album Tropical Dandy is the first edition of this record to be released outside of Japan.

Tropical Dandy is the cult classic album that marked Hosono’s shift toward genre-blending, fusing exotica, jazz, and pop to lay the groundwork for Japanese City Pop.

“I’ve orbited around [Hosono] for light years during his pan-Pacific musical adventures.
Cinematic romance with sonic texture.”

– Van Dyke Parks
