Perhaps I could have done this one about three weeks later when autumn has officially arrived. However, it's already starting to feel like summer is making its way to the finish line although the leaves have quite turned yet.
But I digress. "After Summertime" by the late Yoko Maeno(前野曜子)is a refreshing pitcher of sangria. From her final original album "Twilight" in 1982, the song is a laidback tune on changes of all types with a bit of Latin thrown in there. It's wistful but not maudlin and has that feeling of "Tomorrow's another day". Lyrics were provided by Chikara Ueda(上田力)and the music was by Kayoko Fuyumori(冬杜花代子).
There's another track from "Twilight" that I contributed an article about back in 2019: "Winelight".
