¡Yume de Aimasho
¡Sumiko Sakamoto
Description
[Machine Translation] When NHK started its TV broadcasting, a program called "Yume de Aimasho (Let's meet in a dream)" was launched. Sumiko Sakamoto sang the program's theme song. This program produced not only "Ue wo muite arukou" and many other famous songs, but also some of Japan's most famous actors. Sumiko Sakamoto (nicknamed "Osumi-san") had a string of other hits from the TV singing program at the time, including "Yoru ga akete" and "Tasogare no Midosuji. With her small body and punchy voice, she also had hits with foreign Latin songs, establishing the genre of Latin music in Japan. She also became internationally recognized as an actress in Shohei Imamura's "Narayama busskei" and had a hit with the theme song "Oyasama wo nemasuru lullaby" (Lullaby for sleeping parents). She is an amazing person! To mark the 50th anniversary of her career as a singer, Osumi has taken on the challenge of recording her first CD, and has decided to release an album of all-new recordings of her own covers. The album contains 12 newly recorded songs, including "Yume de Aimasho (Let's meet in a dream)" and "Yoru ga Akete (The dawn dawns)," both representative of Sumiko Sakamoto, as well as the Latin masterpieces "El Bancero" and "Besame Mucho," and other bonus tracks. The album jacket was photographed by Kishin Shinoyama, a photographer, and is a CD featuring Osumi-san, who is hard to believe that she is a singer over 70 years old.
