RELEASE DATE

WRWTFWW Records present the first official worldwide reissue of the sophomore album from fabled Japanese folk singer-songwriter/actress/writer
Hako Yamasaki
,
Tsunawatari
. Recorded right after her outstanding debut
Tobimasu
(WRWTFWW 079CD/LP),
Tsunawatari
was released in 1976 on Elec Records, one of the first independent labels in Japan, and solidified Hako Yamasaki as one of the most gorgeous voices of the country and an exceptional musician and singer. A truly perfect follow-up, it immortalizes the bitter beauty of heartache with tearful performances and nostalgic empowerment. The beauty of melancholic songs reaches heartbreaking heights in
Tsunawatari
, a magnificent ode to the sorrow of lost love and the time that passes offered to the world with a very unique brand of folk music. The kind of folk that goes for the guts, folk that shamelessly flirts with tearful blues, contemplative soft pop and psychedelic nostalgia. Put the needle on "Help Me" -- there's simply no holding back. Hako Yamasaki, a pioneer in both the creative boom and the rise of feminism of 1970s Japan, went on to release over thirty albums, building an impressive discography and a fascinating career filled with ups and downs. Her work, inimitable and timeless, deserves the utmost recognition and should be celebrated. Again and again and again.
Tsunawatari
is released in conjunction with Hako Yamasaki's classic debut album Tobimasu, also available on WRWTFWW Records.
