Humbert Humbert to release two "FOLK" albums on vinyl; "Tora" THE FIRST TAKE recording also released for streaming
The vinyl editions of Humbert Humbert's albums "FOLK" and "FOLK 2" will be released as a limited first pressing.
"FOLK" is an album series featuring acoustic covers of songs that transcend generations and genres, from classic Japanese folk songs to 1990s J-POP. While four albums have been released in the series so far, two of them will now be released on vinyl: the first album, "FOLK," which contains a total of 12 songs including re-recorded versions of their signature tracks "Onaji Hanashi" and "Kokugo," and covers of Wataru Takada's "Seikatsu no Gara" and Tama / Yoichiro Yanagihara's "Sayonara Jinrui"; and "FOLK 2," which features 12 tracks including original songs like "Eien no Yuhi" and covers of MONGOL800's "Chiisana Koi no Uta" and Yumi Arai's "Hikoukigumo."
Furthermore, the audio from the duo's performance of "Tora" on the YouTube channel "THE FIRST TAKE" was digitally released today, April 22. "Tora," which is also included on "FOLK 2," is one of their signature songs and has been beloved since its release in November 2010. On "THE FIRST TAKE," a piano-arranged version was performed in a single take.
