As either an outgrowth of, or a spin-off phenomenon from, the global reappraisal of city pop, Japanese fusion has been rapidly rising since around last year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the 1978 debut album by Carioca, one of Japan’s leading Brazilian fusion units of the 1970s and 1980s. The group began as the backing band for Kiyoshi Hasegawa, and on this debut release they used the name \"Samba Calioca.\" True to that band name, they were quite unusual at the time for presenting samba and bossa nova with a resort-flavored sound, and they also produced specialists such as drummer Antonio Ishida and guitarist Masami Sato. This highly club-popular first album also features a diverse lineup of guest musicians including Masayoshi Takanaka, Ryuichi Sakamoto, Shuichi \"Ponta\" Murakami, and Shigeharu Mukai.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e(Original release: 1978)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRemastering and cutting: Katsutoshi Kitamura (Mixer’s Labo)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n[[Selling Points]]\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePressed on blue vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJapanese fusion from 1978\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemastered\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n[[Catalog Number]]UPJY-9571[[Artist]]Samba Calioca\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Universal Music","offers":[{"title":"SUNNY PLACE CARNIVAL \/ Album \/ LP Color","offer_id":47973229396213,"sku":"UPJY-9571","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0080\/6417\/2096\/files\/4988031870259.jpg?v=1775848468","url":"https:\/\/lightintheattic.net\/products\/sunny-place-carnival","provider":"Light in the Attic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
