Mariya Takeuchi sets industry standard with latest album!

Industry legend Mariya Takeuchi has done it once again with the release of her latest album Turntable which took the number one spot for this week’s Oricon Top 10 albums. What makes this feat extremely special this time around is that Takeuchi is one of the only artists to have a number one hit album in the past three eras of Japan( Showa, Heisei, and now Reiwa), with her previous hits being her LP LOVE SONGS back in the 1980s and Quiet Life in 1992. We would like to congratulate young 64-year-old Takeuchi for all she’s done for the industry and we can’t wait to see what she has in store for us next.
