Miki Matsubara's ninth studio album makes its vinyl reissue debut. Originally released December 21, 1985, "Lady Bounce" showcases the refined artistry that defined her career—crystalline vocals layered over sophisticated mid-tempo grooves, shimmering guitar work, and immaculate production. Producer Minoru Mukaiya, renowned for his work with fusion pioneers Casiopea, crafted a seamless fusion of witty French pop sensibilities and sharp fusion elements. The result is a collection that rewards rediscovery, blending cosmopolitan city-pop sophistication with the technical precision of Japan's fusion scene. This marks Miki Matsubara's final Canyon Records release and the concluding chapter of her vinyl reissue campaign—a fitting testament to an extraordinary artistic legacy.
Genre: Funk, Pop, and City pop
