Description:

Columbia Sound Treasure Series" is a new series of releases that unearths and releases "valuable sound sources that have not yet been commercialized or released on CD. The third release in this series is the classic anime "Triton of the Sea," based on Osamu Tezuka's original story. Like "Space Battleship Yamato," "Umi no Triton" sparked the anime boom in Japan, and this two-disc LP set is a must-have for fans, including some soundtracks that were previously unavailable on LP at the time. The work itself, as well as the background music composed by Hiromasa Suzuki, nicknamed "Korgen," has an innovative sound that draws from a variety of genres, including jazz and rock, and is still highly acclaimed today. The performances are also performed by such greats of the past as Hideo Ichikawa, Isao Eto, Masaoki Terakawa, Kiyoshi Sugimoto, Akira Ishikawa, and Motohiko Hino, making this a truly historic masterpiece!
