【CITY POP】ASPHALT LADY / 杉山清貴&オメガトライブ COVER by PIANO & WHISKY

Kiyotaka Sugiyama & Omega Tribe (杉山清貴&オメガトライブ) was the very first incarnation of the "Omega Tribe" band back in the early 1980's. I remember hearing this song on a TV show and fell in love with it without knowing the title or the singer; nor was there any notion of "city pop" or "AOR", back then it was simply known as just pop / funk / rock. However, it was trendy to incorporate the various elements of funk, jazz and rock like what became the "sophisti-pop" in the West, and later "jazz fusion" on the instrumental side of things. It was all fun, especially with the introduction of new synthesizer technology in the 80's, the Roland Juno-60, Yamaha DX7, and later the samplers and romplers - E-MU, Emulator, Roland D-50, Korg M1's from the mid- to late- 80's.

As far as I recall, I've arranged the song originally for a band contest that never happened for reasons I cannot remember anymore. Nevertheless, I've been wanting to record a cover of this song back then but never did so until today. In the summer of 2020 in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, I added acoustic guitar and vocal parts to the project that has spanned 28 years to complete. The Voyetra SPG was entirely text-based and one of the few D
