About

The world renowned artist, composer, lyricist, and producer AnriI debuted in 1978 with the top hit song "Olivia wo Kikinagara" (Listening to Olivia) from her debut album Apricot Jam. This was the start of her becoming one of Japan's most popular and influential songwriters, performers, and musical icon. She could scarcely have imagined that she would one day become not only one of Japan's most popular and influential songwriters, performers and musical icons, but a vibrant cultural ambassador for her homeland as well.

Infusing elements of American R&B, rock and jazz into her energetic J-pop style, she revolutionized Japanese pop music, scoring enduring hits with numerous songs that have become standards, including the theme song to "Cat's Eye" from the NTV animation series (which debuted at #1 on Countdown Japan) and the romantic ballads "Summer Candles" and "Dolphin Ring," which years later remain popular staples at wedding ceremonies throughout the country.

This 12-inch single contains four songs in total, including "Remember Summer Days", which was previously unreleased on LP, and "Last Summer Whisper". — (via Label)
