The fourth album by Konomi Sasaki, SSW from Hokkaido, released in 1985. Although there were expectations that Miyuki Nakajima from her same hometown will return, this work is said to have shifted to a pop line aimed at sales without being blessed with hits. Produced by Shigeru Suzuki, who also produced the first album, his melody work intersects with her melancholy vocals, and at the time, sales of this album were not so good, but it has been reevaluated in recent years. The backing musicians, including Hiroshi Sato, Pecker, and Hiroyuki Namba, are also gorgeous.

北海道出身のSSW 佐々木好の通算四枚目となる85年のアルバム。同郷の中島みゆきの再来との声がありながらもなかなかヒットには恵まれずセールスを狙ったポップ路線にシフトしたと言われる作品。プロデュースも初作の鈴木茂が担当し、淡々とした哀愁も感じるヴォーカルにメロディワークが交差する近年再評価されている一枚。当時はやはり売上もいまいちだったようですが。林哲司、佐藤博、ペッカー、難波弘之などバッキングミュージシャンも豪華です。
