Masaki Sato -- Million Night

 

When I came across the name Masaki Sato, I initially went "Oh, yeah! Masaki Sato? I've seen that name oodles of times. Should be fine getting him from Labels."

Ah, well, on that point. Actually, he hadn't existed until now when I did place him into Labels for the first time in this blog's history. According to J-Wiki, there is an animator who had worked on "Dragonball" and someone involved in the fabric industry with that name but no singer. Furthermore, according to Discogs, the kanji for this singer's name can be rendered as either 佐藤正樹 or 佐藤真紀. Go figure on that. 

There isn't a whole lot about the mysterious Masaki but he apparently released two singles in 1982 and 1983, and for that second single, this is "Million Night" which seems to be quite the intriguing evening for one fellow and a lady (and I guess he really likes wearing his sunglasses at night). It's more on the rocking side of City Pop and bass addicts ought to have a good time with this one. This was written by Akira Ohtsu（大津あきら）, composed by Kisaburo Suzuki（鈴木キサブロー）and arranged by Satoshi Takebe（武部聡志）.
