Quiet Emotion – Clear Pure Vinyl LP

Quiet Emotion is the sophisticated second album by Japanese singer-songwriter Naoko Gushima (具島直子), originally released in 1997. Blending smooth AOR, mellow soul, and atmospheric Japanese pop, the record pairs Gushima's intimate vocals with refined, groove-focused arrangements.

Highlights include the rhythmic opener “Tell me oh mama,” the dreamy “Madoromi,” and the understated ballad “no. no. no.” This Japanese Pure Vinyl 30th-anniversary reissue presents the complete ten-track album on clear vinyl.
