This is the 1971 studio album named Play Pops by Japanese keyboardist Hidemi Saito. He was one of Japan’s leading electronic organists at that time, and he mostly plays the Electone on the majority of his albums. This album contains Electone covers of various popular songs during that time, and some of his own original works.

The album title is set in Moore Computer with the number 0 substituted for the letter O in “POPS”. The artist’s name is set in Stettler, while the word “electoneis set in a semi bold italic weight of Bembo.

At the back cover, the album title along with the English translations of some track names and its credits are set in Futura. The Japanese sans serif text is set in varying weights of Ishii Gothic.
