A comprehensive look at Show-Ya’s early career is offered on this CD compilation, “New Best Now 70.” Released on February 25, 1988, via the Eastworld label (Toshiba EMI), this album (catalog number CT32-9011) gathers the band’s essential tracks from their formative years.
As part of the popular “New Best Now 70” series, this 16-track collection serves as a powerful retrospective. It draws from their classic 1980s albums, perfectly capturing their signature blend of hard rock energy and strong, melodic songwriting.
The tracklist is packed with fan favorites from their first few albums, including “Talon Of King,” “Au Revoir,” “Masquerade,” “Shidokenaku Emotion,” “S.T.O.P (But I Can’t…),” “One Way Heart,” “Fairy,” “Ame no Knife,” “Sono Ato de Koroshitai,” and “Mizu no Naka no Tōbōsha.”
CT32-9011 stands as an excellent summary of Show-Ya’s initial, powerful run on the Eastworld label, making it a perfect starting point for new listeners or a great collection for longtime fans of 80s Japanese hard rock.
