Catalog context

CIRCUS TOWN: the BVJL-95 edition

2023-08-02 · LP · 8 tracks · remastered reissue.

Symbolic editorial illustration shared with the CIRCUS TOWN essay
Shared original AI editorial illustration from “CIRCUS TOWN: Two Cities on One Record”. A visual metaphor, not an archival photograph, master-tape image or original cover for this entry.

This is the BVJL-95 remastered reissue of Tatsuro Yamashita’s “CIRCUS TOWN”, released on 2023-08-02 in LP format. The edition contains 8 ordered tracks. Its release date identifies this particular issue; the album itself belongs to 1976. Catalog number, medium and date together make this a more precise reference than the album title alone.

The sequence opens with “CIRCUS TOWN” and closes with “夏の陽”. Those endpoints and the 8-position list provide a concrete way to check that a source describes BVJL-95, rather than another issue carrying the same album name.

The source describes the edition as “2023 remaster and vinyl cutting”. Its production designation is limited edition. These are release specifications, not a listening comparison or proof of identical masters on other formats. The linked album essay supplies the broader musical context.

Editorial note

This contextual introduction uses the catalog evidence attached to the sources below. Release, position, composition and recording identities remain distinct; a database identifier is not an independent audio test. See the related essay for the fuller treatment.
