Greatest hits from the original Dragon Ball TV series pressed on one-star ball colored vinyl for the first time! Unless you want to drop a small fortune on an original pressing, this is the best way to listen to rare tracks like the dramatic ballad “Aoki Tabibitotachi” or the “Thriller” parody “Fushigi Wonderland.” The album starts with the opening theme “Makafushigi Adventure!” performed by legendary voice actor Hiroki Takahashi and ends with the closing theme “Romantic Ageru Yo” performed by Ushio Hashimoto. Most of the tracks on this album are remarkably ‘80s, sprinkled with FM synthesizers, drum machines, and the occasional power rock guitar solo. A must-have for any fan of the original anime.
