Best of Nokko

"JPOP, Japanese popular music, is best know for its cute girl idols. I think Nokko is the best of them. She isn't the cutest of them (some of them get awfully cute) and she isn't the best singer, but she has by far the best ear. She has taken all of the best parts from JPOP, rock, Motown, and Brazil, and put them back together in ways that are wonderfully fresh and amazingly inventive. This album collects much of her best stuff. Some of her other albums, Rhyming Cafe and Colored, are even better."
