This is a music album by Japanese musician Haruomi Hosono (細野晴臣) released in 1973. The album has been acclaimed abroad as a pioneer of rock and home recording sung in Japanese. The cover art was designed by the designer group “Work Shop Mu!!” (1968-1976). They lived in an off-base residential area where the U.S. military lived after the war and studied American design. They created the cover art for many records of musicians whose musical activities were influenced by Western music. After the group disbanded, each member continued to work on many of the pieces.
