This album marked a turning point musically, not only as a player but also as a stronger artist.
The third album released in 1978. It includes popular songs such as "BOMBER," "Shiosai," and "2000 Tons of Rain," which were frequently included in the setlists of later live shows. It is an experimental work that contains elements of various genres.
"OVERTURE" is an a cappella song with multiple solo choruses that was consciously started to be used frequently on this album. "LOVE CELEBRATION" is a collection of songs that had been shelved for various reasons. With lyrics by Yasui Kazumi, "LOVE CELEBRATION" was released as a single in the same year as "Vibration" with vocals by Kasai Kimiko.
