Almost missed this one... This is a 2CD selection of songs from various City Boys soundtracks from 1992 until 2000 (covering at least "Toilet Without Key", "i messaggeri degli imbecilli vanno all'ovest", "Love's Rubber Brain", "Building on a Strong Foundation", "Not Found" and "L'inconscience de l'été", "Ultra rashioshiohaimina-ru").
About half of the songs are produced by Konishi Yasuharu, while other artists include Tei Towa, Fantastic Plastic Machine, Nomiya Maki, Louis Philippe, and Kaneko Takahiro. A must for anyone who doesn't have all of City Boys' soundtracks. :)
City Boys have a new play coming up in April-May, titled "Mental 3kyōdai no koi".

Do you know who the 'asterisk' songs are credited to?
I've got a photo of the other end of the asterisk in the linked tweet, but unfortunately I don't know Japanese...

It says:
* Italian sessions.
From "Not Found" (1997).
All uncredited songs are by KONISHI Yasuharu.

Ah, great, thank you! :D
I wonder if that third line is meant to apply to everything, and not just the asterisked tracks?
Actually, I noticed you credited some of the unlabeled tracks to him and some to Kaneko Takahiro, is that something you knew from other albums they'd appeared on or something? And is there any chance you'd know who to credit for 'dakishimetai'?
(I'm trying to get everything attributed properly on MusicBrainz, for the record! http://musicbrainz.org/release/3c8c7e5b-b0db-40ca-b85c-1074f98fb6c2 )
Thanks for your help!
