Another record given to me by my brother-in-law a long time ago.

Some said it's a breakthrough recording from the Chinese Audiophile company.

Some said it's full of MSG and the only purpose is to appease the HiFi followers.

Some suggest it mixes the new approach from modern technology with the Chinese heritage to another level.

I think they all share an element of truth.

Personally I think it's a fine recording and occasionally I will play to have the sound entertainment.

Thanks for the information as I am not familiar with Japanese music.

I see 中島美雪 as could be a poet in writing her songs, having the touch on human emotions, social beings and a story teller.

Here is another one from the other side of the pond. I label her as one my three angels, the others being Sandy Denny and Joni Mitchell.

Tonight I tried the two drum mics given to me by a seller I bought something from. Since it's a drum mic so I put them way low just in front of the woofer of the BC3.

So using 4 Mics(two from the ZOOM 4E and two XLR Mics).

Also, trying two S.T.C. (Philips made) E80CC with the Elekit TU-8500 Preamp as well.

此曲原本是交給同公司的甄楚倩主唱，容易受傷的女人推出即風靡全港，大時代正式成為神劇，王靖雯正式成為樂壇天后，才女中島美雪正式打入香港市場，日本唱片公司乘勢推出美雪集CD，據報銷量達雙白金


原唱者是千秋直美 1977年

中島美雪..........

Because of this song from not knowing 中島美雪 to now owning more than 10 of her records.

夏天拿起唱片，看著黑膠封面上的柏原芳惠，已經樂透了，真的未聽歌先興奮，聽串流長大的，是不會明白

柏原芳惠 夏模樣

這首歌是Oricon評選1000首歌曲的前10名

中島美雪作曲，一種能觸動你心弦的嗓音

老派聽歌之必要。。。。

聽串流音樂長大的年青人，未必會明白上一輩人購買唱片的樂趣


柏原芳惠 儘管是春天

中島美雪的旋律，為何會那麼觸動人心，現在還有這些作曲人嗎

It should be this video........angelic sound.

More testing from yesterday with the 5814A tubes and as you can hear they need more running in time.

My kind of chilled Jazz music and "improvised" Folk and Jazz fusion????

I believe this the cheapest record but the most practical Audiophile Reference Testing Record. But to me it’s the music. The music I grew up with when young. From sentimental, sad to happy stage of life.

She was beautiful...............

老派聽歌之必要.........

In another thread it was posted with a remastered version of the Japanese "キミの夢は, ボクの夢. (你的夢想就是我的夢想) Pocari Sweat CM曲".

"激盪躍動嘅青春回憶" was used to described their nostalgic sentiment ..............I didn't have the chance.

Mine would be subtle and perhaps quite underground( back in the late 70's in HK)...Punk, Post Punk and Electronic......

Anyway, I found two 5814A tubes, again from somewhere I forgot!! I put them into the Elekit TU-8500 Preamp to have a go yesterday.

And my Audio Note M1 has a new badge in the honour of the Late Queen II........老派之 " 事頭婆 "

【經緯線】老派聽歌之必要

中山ラビ "太陽 "

Now testing my DIY 3/5a together with the gifted AN M1 MM Phono Preamp…………

Oh dear!!!!

What have I done!!!

輕鬆日本爆笑短劇 ＞＞ 有鄧麗君。

片段街頭訪問3:40開始。播歌考考她們，竟然可以講中歌曲名。
問她們為何熟悉這些舊歌，其中一女孩，說衹聽廣東舊歌，歌詞有意義，旋律入心入肺。
