Marking 50 years since its original release, StonesThrow Records’ reissue of Haruomi Hosono’s 1975 album ‘Tropical Dandy’ is the first edition of this record to be released outside of Japan. ‘Tropical Dandy’ is the cult classic album that markedHosono’s shift toward genre-blending, fusing exotica,jazz and pop to lay the groundwork for Japanese CityPop. Hosono is the founding member of folk-rock act HappyEnd and the pioneering electronic trio Yellow MagicOrchestra. He has also released several solo albums in his five-decade career, spanning many styles and effortlessly fusing exotica, funk, country, electronic,ambient and everything in between. “I’ve orbited around [Hosono] for light years during hispan-Pacific musical adventures. Cinematic romance with sonic texture.” - Van Dyke Parks This marks the second collaboration between StonesThrow and Hosono, following the release of ‘HosonoHouse Revisited’, a compilation of songs fromHosono’s solo debut, reworked by artists includingMac DeMarco, Sam Gendel and John Carroll Kirby.
