Item description
ON THE STREET CORNER 2 is a 1986 a cappella /doowop album by the "King of City Pop" Tatsuro Yamashita
Vinnk's Take: This one is so weird (in a good way) Tatsuro Yamashita is famous for being one of the greats of the City Pop genre that uses a lot of instruments and electronic sounds. But he had a side project where he covers English droop songs in an a cappella style where he sings all the parts individually and then combines them. It is so different from his other work, but I freaking love it. That said, I would advise you to know what you are getting before buying. This is not a city pop album. As I write this I am listening to "I Only Have Eyes for You" and I am truly happy.
