DESCRIPTION

Details: Yoko Maeno is a legendary deva who was the first vocalist of Pedro & Capricious. Nearly 40 years have passed since her death, but her brilliance has not yet faded. This second best album is a collection of covers of the finest Japanese and foreign songs, carefully selected from her famous singing, ranging from popular songs to folk, pop and rock! There are no overlapping tracks with the previous 'BEST' album, and it contains a total of 18 songs, newly remastered in 2025! She was a singer who was really good at singing. It is taken for granted that a singer is good at singing, but that common sense has become obsolete these days. That is why Yoko Maeno's singing voice is once again in the spotlight. Nearly 40 years have passed since she passed away, but her brilliance has not yet faded. This second best album is a collection of cover songs from Yoko Maeno's best singing. It may seem a little surprising, but she was actually the 'queen of cover songs.' All of Pedro & Capricious' singles, including 'Wakare no Asa,' when Maeno was in the group, were covers of Western music. There is a reason why Yoko Maeno's best singing is full of cover songs. She originally had a strong inclination toward Western music and liked listening to black music and rock. Janis Joplin was one of her favorite repertoires. There is an anecdote that Pedro Umemura, the leader of Pedro & Capricious, heard this, was so impressed by her skill that he invited her to join the group. Maeno had the talent to make various songs her own, not just Western songs. Of course, it goes without saying that this was backed up by her extraordinary singing ability.
