Best known for the 21-year run of psych-rock group Yura Yura Teikoku, where he sang and played guitar across 10 albums, Sakamoto uses that long view to make something relaxed but wide-ranging rather than nostalgic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWritten, produced and performed by Sakamoto, \u003cem\u003eYoo-hoo\u003c\/em\u003e expands his solo catalogue with a characteristically off-centre mix of blues, mood kayō, 1960s soul, surf instrumentals and funk. That blend has become one of his signatures, but here it also reflects the album's travel-worn perspective: familiar styles are reshaped into something light on its feet, melodic and quietly eccentric. AllMusic also notes colourful contributions from players including Manami Kakudo and Toru Nishiuchi, details that fit the record's loose, richly arranged feel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs Sakamoto's fifth solo album, \u003cem\u003eYoo-hoo\u003c\/em\u003e sits naturally alongside \u003cem\u003eLike a Fable\u003c\/em\u003e while showing how restlessly he keeps refining his own songbook. If you came to him through Yura Yura Teikoku, this is a good reminder of how far his solo work has travelled; if not, it is an inviting place to start, full of vintage pop ideas that never feel boxed in by revivalism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n\n    \u003c!-- Genres --\u003e\n    \n      \u003cp\u003eGenre: \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/global-music-on-vinyl-records\"\u003eGlobal\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n\n    \n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Release tab content --\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cdiv\u003e\n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArtist: \u003c\/strong\u003e Shintaro Sakamoto\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLabel: \u003c\/strong\u003e Zelone Records\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n          \n          \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat: \u003c\/strong\u003e LP\u003c\/div\u003e\n          \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnits: \u003c\/strong\u003e 1\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/vinyl-records-store-australia\/country_worldwide\"\u003eWorldwide\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGenre: \u003c\/strong\u003e\n          \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/global-music-on-vinyl-records\"\u003eGlobal\u003c\/a\u003e\n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Tracklist tab content --\u003e\n  \n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eA1 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Shintaro+Sakamoto+Dear+Grandpa\"\u003eDear Grandpa\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA2 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Shintaro+Sakamoto+Is+There+A+Place+For+You+There?\"\u003eIs There A Place For You There?\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA3 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Shintaro+Sakamoto+Justice\"\u003eJustice\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA4 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Shintaro+Sakamoto+Protect+Your+Brain\"\u003eProtect Your Brain\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA5 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Shintaro+Sakamoto+On+The+Other+Side+Of+Time\"\u003eOn The Other Side Of Time\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB1 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Shintaro+Sakamoto+The+Clock+Began+To+Move\"\u003eThe Clock Began To Move\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB2 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Shintaro+Sakamoto+Numb\"\u003eNumb\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB3 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Shintaro+Sakamoto+Why+Do+This?\"\u003eWhy Do This?\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB4 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Shintaro+Sakamoto+Ghost+Town\"\u003eGhost Town\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB5 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Shintaro+Sakamoto+Yoo-hoo\"\u003eYoo-Hoo\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n","brand":"Zelone Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44278312042561,"sku":"5479598","price":48.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1474\/5258\/files\/617308049503.jpg?v=1785456609","url":"https:\/\/www.dutchvinyl.com.au\/products\/shintaro-sakamoto-yoo-hoo-377362","provider":"Dutch Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
