Akiko Yano
峠のわが家

Album JP 1986 on Midi Inc. label
Electronic, Jazz and Rock (Pop Rock, Synth-pop)

LP sleeve came with a sticker obi on the outer shrink-wrap. Unlike the CD release, the name of the LP and graphics representing "home" were embossed on the sleeve - a toilet paper roll, a toilet, a piano, a TV (framing Akiko's face), a key, a telephone dial and two symbols possibly representing a clothes-dryer or cooking utensils. On the rear sleeve there are embossed graphics of a letter (this relates to the song "David"), a diamond, a cooker hotplate and an iron.
