Tokyo's Coolest Sound

Following the release of two Pizzicato Five 7" cuts last year, "couples ep" and "Bellissima! ep", here are two more limited 7"'s coming this month!

The first contains 3 songs from the 1989 album "On Her Majesty's Request", when the band consisted of Konishi Yasuharu, Takanami K-taro and male vocalist Tajima Takao (Original Love). The jacket is said to be based on the rare promo-only vinyl edition of the album some might have seen before, and will come as a 7" gatefold sleeve rearranged by Konishi.

The other release is of "Lovers Rock", the only P5 single released in the Sony years, just a month after 1990 album "Soft Landing On The Moon". It was the first song released with lead vocals by Nomiya Maki. The new 7" consists of two edits by Konishi. The jacket reuses the design from the 3" CD single.

Both were newly mastered by Bernie Grundman and pressed in Holland by Record Industry.
