Reissue by Great Tracks / Sony Japan (MHJL-151)

Pacific is an album featuring instrumental compositions by three great names of Japanese jazz and funk; Haruomi Hosono 細野晴臣, Shigeru Suzuki 鈴木 茂, and Tatsuro Yamashita 山下達郎. It’s a summer-themed album with titles reminding of the ocean: “Coral Reef”, “Nostalgia Island“, “Cosmic Surfin’”, …

The design of the cover by Tsuguya Inoue 井上嗣也 is simple: a photo taken by Shimpei Asai in helicopter view and a title without particular design in italic Futura Condensed. We find several times the design of Pacific often at the top of the visuals and in big sizes.
