“Tornado” by Minako Yoshida (1980)

You’d probably put this squarely in the category of Japanese City Pop, which is not normally in my wheelhouse, but this album is straight up 🔥
Don’t let format stop you from hearing this one. It’s up on a lot of the streamers.
“Midnight Driver” by Minako Yoshida (1980)

Japanese soul-pop, not typically my taste, but this record is absolute 🔥
I’m a little under the weather on New Year’s Eve, and this may be the final spin of 2025, opting instead to venture an old fashioned or a sake, and stream a yakuza flick.
Like any year, 2025 brought challenges, but was pretty good on balance.
Here’s to more great music in 2026 - health, happiness and peace to you!
