He tried again, but the released record did not sound the way Fujio had intended, and he expressed his frustration.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe vinyl reissue released in limited quantities by HMV in 2021 was digitized from the original open-reel master, and this reissue has also been digitized from the original open-reel master. The mastering engineer for this reissue was Soichiro Nakamura (PEACE MUSIC), who has worked on many of Fujio's works in recent years, including the 2022 remastered CD of the same work, and the cutting engineer was the renowned master Shigeru Takezawa (Nippon Columbia). True to Fujio's words, \"I'm sure that one day, an even better analog will be created, and it will once again coexist with the world of CD (from Fujio Yamaguchi's book \"SO WHAT\"),\" this reissue was produced with the aim of faithfully extracting the sound image recorded on the master, taking advantage of the characteristics of vinyl to reproduce a sound as close as possible to the sound Fujio desired.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn addition to the specifications of the original release, including the cover band, it also comes with a lyric card featuring unreleased photos from the time of release, and it has been decided that it will be reprinted in limited quantities on the first ever colored vinyl (clear\/light blue)!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e ●As an enclosed bonus for those who pre-order and purchase the first shipment, this work will come with a private photo card (7-inch jacket size).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e ■Track list:\u003cbr\u003e\n Side A\u003cbr\u003e\n 1.
