Techno x Comedy = ∞
The fourth album, released in 1980, was a 10-inch mini album that included "TIGHTEN UP," which was later re-cut as a single. It was a groundbreaking work at the time, with comedy skits by the Snakeman Show inserted between songs. It felt more like a "planned" album than an original album.
At the time of release, he was so busy that he didn't have time to create many songs, so he released it as a 10-inch mini album. After Yukihiro Takahashi played his favorite radio program, "Snakeman Show," for Haruomi Hosono, it became a comedy album with skits between songs.
