Yutaka Kimura Speaks ~ Japanese City Pop Masterpieces 100: Seishiro Kusunose -- Boukensha-tachi（冒険者たち）

 

Number: 074

Lyricist: Shigeru Okawa

Composer: Seishiro Kusunose

Arranger: Akira Inoue

From Kusunose's 1987 album: "Boukensha-tachi"

"Boukensha-tachi" (The Adventurers) is one song that splendidly inherits the resplendence of the Niagara sound. It goes without saying that Akira Inoue's（井上鑑）arrangement greatly contributed to the end result, but Seishiro Kusunose's（楠瀬誠志郎）clarity and satisfying high-toned vocals along with the distance between city dwellers and the resorts that is masterfully expressed within the lyrics among other factors show off a unique hue that is reminiscent of the child-like nature of Happy End.

The above comes from "Disc Collection Japanese City Pop Revised" (2020).
