V.A. – AOR Light Mellow ~ BMG Edition [Japan only release / remastered]
Only released in Japan, the original AOR Light Mellow compilation series curated by specialist Toshikazu Kanazawa, were arranged with each record company (Sony Music, BMG, EMI, etc) to create separate volumes with songs / artists from their catalog, carefully selecting long lost gems from the late Seventies / early Eighties.
This volume “AOR Light Mellow ~ BMG Edition” was put together before BMG merged with Sony Music, so we have here artists belonging to the Bertelsmann Music Group: RCA, Arista and Ariola labels.
Therefore, we find never reissued on CD gems from the Eighties, artists such as Robert Kraft, Michael Franks, John Valenti among well known names like Mr. Mister, Player or Airplay.
Out of print and a collector’s piece fully remastered with a stunning audio quality.
