VA - Sarcastic Remarks - Japanese 60s & 70s Female Pop


Here is a damn fine homemade compilation by yours truly - Sarcastic Remarks - Japanese 60s & 70s Female Pop!
Throughout the years I gathered a few Japanese records, either by chance, through family and friends or online and recently I realised I have a few really cool records by some even cooler Japanese female artists and have decided to share some of it with you.
ALL of these records are from my own collection. Some of them came to me via some Japanese club in Tasmania where they had a juke box machine with all these 7" singles. I guess the club stopped working and someone has put those on eBay for me to get it quite cheap - thanks a million! Some of those are masterpieces such as two singles by Ayumi Ishida, as well as stuff by Maria Anzai (a killer tune!) and Lilly - who we have to thank for the title of the compilation.
Some of it is obvious, some of it is obscure, but all of it is fuckin' brilliant!

Tracklist:
1.    ayumi ishida – blue light yokohama
2.    cherish – sunadoke
3.    chiyo okumura – koi no dorei
4.    jun mayuzumi – tenshi no yuwaku (angel love)
