, posted Wed 30 Jul 20:51
Any Spitz fan here? If you dont know they are a (old?) J-Rock group. I only heard a couple of their songs on a JAL flight a while back and I am really interest to here more of their music. Does anyone know any CD titles that have the songs Robinson and Hikaru? I might ask my bro to pick them up when he goes to JPN. Thanks.

I'm not really a fan but they certainly make good music. I recommend the song "Kaede" .. it was a pretty old song featured in an old Japanese drama named "Overtime".

Spitz rocks.
I looked at all my albums and singles and couldn't find a song called just Hikaru. Are you sure you didn't mistake it for Hotaru? If not, I'd really like to hear this. :)
Robinson was released as a single in '95 and is on their 6th album Hachimitsu (ハチミツ) which was released the same year. The first run of the album is out of print now but lucky for you all their old albums were remastered and re-released last October. So your bro will have no problem finding it should you ask him to.
And you should! It's an awesome album and my personal favorite out of the 10 they have. My other favorite is Sora no Tobi Kata (空の飛び方) which was released a year prior.

Cool, thanks for the info. I could have swron the title of the song I REALLY wanted to hear again way Hikaru, but I am not to sure I will look it up later. Do you know how much those CDs usually go for?

I believe they're going for 2,400 yen right now. Which is about $20.

Momotato Man, you seem to be a very well in formed person in the ways of J-Rock do you have any recomendations of the bands in the topic (Asian Kung-Fu Generation, X Japan, Larcenciel) Are X Japan CDs really expensive in Japan? I remember seeing one here (the final live I think) and it as $60.

Sorry, I don't like any of those bands. ^^;;
But as far as X-Japan CDs being expensive... They're only expensive if you want new first print copies of old albums. Other than that they're priced the same as any other music CDs.

Oh, and The Last Live was a triple CD set. It was about 4,800 yen ($40) in Japan. Seeing it for $60 in an American store is pretty normal for import prices here.

Great, i guess we have a J-Rock fan here. Good to know that. And apart frm X Japan being expensive in other countries i believe is the availability of the cds.. same goes to Singapore.. the Last Live CDs were charged at a price of 65dollars (sg dollar) even if its not the first print (the one which came wif a slide in transparent cover)

I paid around $40 US for it, at the Kinokuniya in NYC. $60 seems on the steep side, but it'd still be worth it, I think.
