This is my trial

Release Date: 10/21/1980
Rank:  4th (Oricon)
Singles:  「一恵」 B-side
Obi:  阿木燿子、宇崎竜童、谷村新司、井上陽水他作家陣による山口百恵ラスト・オリジナル・アルバム (Aki Yoko, Uzaki Ryudo, Tanimura Shinji, Inoue Yosui and other song writers' Yamaguchi Momoe LAST ORIGINAL ALBUM)
Notes:  Track 3 was written by Momoe herself, using the pen name "Yokosuka Kei" (横須賀　恵).  Track 6 was the first and only collaboration with singer-song writer Inoue Yosui.  He self-covered it later on one of his albums.
Opinion:  This wasn't a huge send-off album or anything like that.  She didn't even include her last single.  Listening to this, it has a bit of everything that defines Momoe; something sexy, something funky, something with a rock edge, and of course, some ballads.  She had fun, and this was a fun album that had a sampling of everything she's touched on in her career.
