Hayashi Tetsuji: The Songwriters

Tetsuji Hayashi's prolific work in the '70s and '80s paved the way for a J-pop idol explosion, as superb songs graced the lips of the era's biggest names. Artists like Akina Nakamori and Seiko Matsuda were just two to benefit from Hayashi's upbeat compositions. This collection features breezy keys and slap bass of synth-laced R&B, while effervescent vocal leads rightfully seize the limelight.
