① is
"Three years since Kazuhiko Kato's death (as of 2013). A tribute album by The Folk Crusaders, with deep tributes to him. Allies Osamu Kitayama and Konosuke Sakazaki, who joined the Folk Crusaders in the 2000s, come together! A collection of works by the Fourth Folk Crusaders, covering everything from Folk Crusaders to Kato's solo masterpieces, as well as unreleased songs with Kato's vocals. "From TOWER RECORDS commentary
"The birth of the Fourth Folk Crusaders' new album. From the liner notes on the obi, "From the new Japanese and French versions of "Imjin River" and self-covers such as "Sad and Frustrating," to the unreleased "Te to Te Te to Te," and the title song created based on the demo tape that became Kazuhiko Kato's last work, a total of 14 songs packed with things to listen to that transcend time and space."
*Honestly, it feels like a project to imitate Konosuke Sakazaki (especially ⑫, which is so indistinguishable from the real thing), but if they had persuaded the late Norihiko Hashida to participate... it's a shame. (I know, but I'm wondering what would have happened). This is the first edition, but it does not come with the original outer box.
② is the third album released in 1981 by Osamu Kitayama, who was a member of the Folk Crusaders and, after the band's disbandment, provided lyrics for many singers and artists such as the Schuberts, the Jiros, and Climax. To be honest, Kitayama is not a good singer, but he has a nice pastoral flavor in songs such as "Hatsukoi no Hito Ni Nitai" (It's Like My First Love), a duet with a female vocalist that he composed for Toi et Moi and "Shiroi Iro wa Koibito no Iro" (White Color is My Lover's Color), which he wrote for Betsy & Chris. "Saraba Koibito" (Goodbye Lover), sung by Sakai Masaaki, won the Record Grand Prix Popular Award in 1971.
