Rocket Brown with his Come Along Radio has released his September-themed mix and just in time considering that it's the last day of September. It comes of course with Mariya Takeuchi's(竹内まりや)"September" leading the way and even a few of her very rare commercial endorsements.
Along with Mariya comes one of her colleagues, singer-songwriter Kazuhito Murata(村田和人)with one of his own September tunes, logically titled "Lady September". The B-side to his 2nd single "Catching the Sun" from August 1982, "Lady September" is a slightly bittersweet farewell to the hot season and I gather that from Yoshihiko Ando's(安藤芳彦)lyrics, a lot of the ninth month has always had plenty of summer weather before and probably even after the 21st. Murata came up with the relaxing melody and it was all arranged by Tatsuro Yamashita(山下達郎), something that is all very evident to his fans.
"Lady September" and Murata's debut single "Denwa shite mo"(電話しても)are tracks on his debut album "Mata Ashita"(また明日...See You Tomorrow) which came out in June in the same year.
