Group Sounds Two 17cm single records set of The Blue Comets and The Village Singers Jackie Yoshikawa and The Blue Comets "Doko e" (Where to) Yukiko Marimura / Lyrics & Composition B-side "Sentimental City" Jun Hashimoto / Lyrics, Koichi Sugiyama / Composition The Village Singers "Ame no Naka no Koi" (Love in the Rain) Tsutomu Sasaki / Lyrics & Composition, Takeyoshi Noguchi / Arrangement B-side "Saraba Koibito" (Goodbye Lover) Rei Nakanishi / Lyrics, Kunihiko Murai / Composition & Arrangement The Blue Comets debuted in June 1966 with "Aoi Hitomi" (Blue Eyes) from CBS Columbia. They emphasized melancholic melodies and harmonies, and along with The Spiders, who emphasized beat and groove, they were active as a leading group in Group Sounds. In 1967, they won the 9th Japan Record Award for "Blue Chateau" and appeared on NHK Kohaku Uta Gassen for three consecutive years. Compared to other Group Sounds, they had an overwhelmingly high musical standard, with all members possessing high musical literacy, composition and arrangement skills, and they were a band that could perform with high completeness with outstanding instrumental performance and ensemble, and meticulous chorus work. They were also highly regarded for their ability as a backing band, participating in the recording of Hibari Misora's hit song "Makka na Taiyo" (Bright Red Sun). "Doko e" was released in November 1966 and was the theme song for the TV drama of the same name, based on the novel by Yojiro Ishizaka. The Village Singers debuted in October 1966 with "Kurai Sunahama" (Dark Beach) from CBS Columbia. "Barairo no Kumo" (Rose-Colored Clouds), released in August 1967, was a big hit. While many groups aimed to be rock bands like The Beatles and The Rolling Stones, they were in the flow of folk rock, like Bob Dylan, who brought electric guitars to acoustic modern folk. As a "princely mood Group Sounds," they had consecutive hits such as "Suki Dakara" (Because I Like You), "Amai-iro no Kami no Otome" (Girl with Flaxen Hair), and "Niji no Naka no Lemon" (Lemon in the Rainbow), and moved to the newly established CBS Sony Records in 1968. "Ame no Naka no Koi" was released in March 1969, when the boom was beginning to subside, and is a fairy-tale-like song. "Doko e" has a stamp of the original owner's name on the label, and "Ame no Naka no Koi" has a bag that is not original, but a bag from the RCA label of Nippon Victor. For Group Sounds fans, The Blue Comets fans, The Village Singers fans, How about it?
