  14. Next singles lined up for the gramophone, recent purchases that I've not had a chance to play yet as mp3s keep distracting me. Couldn't resist a group called a "fivetet" !

    1. How do you do alphabetical Randy???

      Delete
    2. Ah, that was an error. I don't have a "shuffle" I have a flash drive with 12,000 songs on it. I randomly pick a mix, grab the first five songs I see out of the middle of the mix, that way I'm not actively picking the songs. In this case, I'd tripped an alpha sort, but it's still five songs randomly grabbed.

      Hey, I was on my way out the door to see Thor: Love And Thunder with my son, so I didn't want to resort 12,000 songs.

      By the way....back in '83, a buddy of mine went to Tokyo, walked into a record store, and pointed at a single with a girl playing a Telecaster, and bought it for me, and that's how I came to know Sayaka. Really appalling video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ah37vHo23Vk

    3. She's got that Pete Townshend jump down pat. I like the way she comes out with a guitar, hits one chord, and then tosses the guitar to a roadie offstage.

    4. Yeah, the whole thing looks like a class in "Rock Stage Moves 101." The single "Feel So Light" is a nice slice of pop rock, although the title should be "Feel So Light" but there's that issue with the "r" sound in Japanese. The B-side "Parking" is a snappy rockabilly number with a guitar solo worthy of Brian Setzer. In the 2000s, I tracked down a "Greatest Hits" CD on a Japanese website (that was an adventure as they didn't speak English and I didn't speak Japanese). That revealed that Sayaka was chasing UK/US pop styles, it's all over the place. Dance pop, rockabilly, pop...it's all competent and interesting but it's all over the map.
