Project "Music Album"

 I’ll introduce an album "Greatest Hits – Chapter One" by Backstreet Boys. They are an American vocal harmony group, formed in Florida in 1993.

 "Greatest Hits – Chapter One" is released in Japan in 2001. This album was sold with title, "The Hits – Chapter One". "Greatest Hits – Chapter One" sold in Japan is includes all the songs in "The Hits – Chapter One" and additional 2 songs.   This album includes many famous songs, for example one of their best songs, "I want it that way" has been widely covered and parodied by many artists and loved by many people. I think songs in this album is very catchy. Also you can enjoy harmonious beat. You will like this album, even if you don’t listen to foreign music. I want many people to know their songs!

EXPLORE A WESTERN MUSIC GROUP OR ARTIST

Led Zeppelin was an English rock band. They sometimes called “Zep” or “Led Zep”. They started in London in 1968 and broke up in 1980. In 1969 they release 1st album in the US, not in the UK, their home country. "The band have hit and sold over 200 million albums worldwide." They are famous for heavy, guitar-driven blues-rock sound in heavy metal and hard rock music.  Led Zeppelin preferred to develop the concept of “album-oriented rock”, so they didn't release songs from their albums as single in the UK. Led Zeppelin ended in 1980 after the accidental death of John Bonham, drummer. The band is said that they are “one of the most influential rock bands of all time and one of the most successful music artists in history”.

Technology review

I‘ll write about music player “Walkman F series”.

It is made by Sony. Sony makes some grades of WALKMAN, and F series is in the middle class. F series WALKMAN. You can send E-mail or connect to the web pages with WALKMAN using apps and Wi-Fi network. So you can use it for not only listening to music, but also playing with apps. And bandwidth is developed from obsolete model.

I bought my WALKMAN in 2013. Since then, I had used WALKMAN bought in 2006. And it was very different from 2013 model. It was very streamlined, because it is tool for listening to music only. And its design was obsolete. But F series released in 2013 is handheld design and is has touch-screen, so you can use as you handle your smartphone. I was very impressed because its cutting-edge function is attractive for me. I thought "This is what I've wanted!!". I think it is very user-friendly because it mounts Android OS.  It is very easy-to-use OS. Also, I think the sound is very good compared to other music players. I came to be able to enjoy not only music but also picture, video file and games!
WALKMAN is a device that you should have!
