About this album
Go Ahead! is a sleek and influential City Pop statement from Tatsuro Yamashita, fusing jazz-funk, soul and impeccably crafted pop. Released in 1978, it finds Yamashita refining the sound that would make him one of Japan’s most admired modern pop stylists, balancing breezy melodies with tight rhythms and a sophisticated studio polish. The album moves from the reflective shimmer of “潮騒 (The Whispering Sea)” to the upbeat momentum of “Let’s Dance Baby” and “2000トンの雨 (2000t Of Rain),” showing how his writing could be both immediate and richly arranged. It stands as an early touchstone in the rise of City Pop.
