Himiko Kikuchi’s Woman turns scenes from everyday life into vivid, keyboard-led Japanese jazz fusion. Originally released in 1983, the album blends jazz-funk, city pop, and polished grooves with Kikuchi’s melodic playing and imaginative arrangements.
Each composition has its own cinematic personality, from the relaxed motion of “Sunburned Hip” and the expansive “Darling I’m on Your Side” to the playful “Fat Ma Cooking,” which incorporates Japanese recipe narration and kitchen sounds into its arrangement. This Teichiku Entertainment reissue is part of City Pop on Vinyl 2026 and is pressed on transparent orange vinyl exclusively for Light in the Attic.
