Casiopea is the debut album of Japanese jazz fusion group Casiopea, released on May 25, 1979. Recorded between December 1978 and March 1979 in Japan, it is Casiopea's self-titled debut album. The record includes the participation of some notable contemporary jazz players such as David Sanborn on the saxophone, giving a special touch to Issei Noro's compositions. Tunes like Black Joke are part of the multiple performances and variances along Casiopea's career.
This album was recorded on LP in 1979 as ALR-6017 and years later in 1986 on CD under the 32XA-104 catalog numbers, being the first editions on both LP and CD.
The cover depicts two racecars racing each other on a raceway. The cars are based on Can Am cars running in the japanese Fuji Grand Champion series at the end of the seventies, most likely a Lola T290 Mazda[1] and a March 74s[2] from the 1978[3] & 1979[4] championships.
