An ambitious work by melody makers from the dawn of Japanese pop music.
Lyrical and warm sound and lyrics.
This album was released during a period when the band was striving to take a greater leap forward after achieving national popularity with "Kokoro no Tabi." While based on folk rock, it incorporates pop sophistication and a variety of arrangements, fusing the beauty of the melody with the tenderness of the lyrics. As the title "Takeoff" suggests, the band's ambition to reach the next stage is apparent.
