[1990] Akira Jimbo / "Palette" [Full Album]

HQ rip of one of my favorite CDs from Casiopea's drummer Akira Jimbo, one of the most solid, tight and upbeat drummers in the Japanese music scene. This is the 1990 issue released on the classic Optimism Inc label during the 80s-early 90s. "Twilight Walk" is my personal favorite jam from this one...
