The Peanuts ?– The Hit Parade Vol. 2

Made their mark in the Gozilla / Mothra movies from the early 1960's, as vocalists and as actors.

Impossibly rare 1962 Stereo issue, pressed with Red / Maroon Colored vinyl, on International Record labels. Housed in a paper company sleeve, with plastic bag protection. There is a hole in the plastic, but is in otherwise Excellent condition.  see pics. Astounding stereo image and superb audio, It plays with some light tics here and there, that seem to be part of the pressing, but it is a really nice sounding record. Perhaps a pressing from either Taiwan, Hong Kong or Singapore.

The Peanuts were a Japanese vocal group consisting of twin sisters Emi It?  and Yumi It?.
The twins were discovered while performing at a club in Nagoya in 1958 by pop impresario Sho Watanabe. He brought them to Tokyo and gave them the name The Peanuts.
They made their first recording “Kawaii Hana” (“Cute Flower”) in 1959.[2] In their early years they sang Japanese covers of standards, foreign hits, and Japanese folk songs; then they began singing originals, written by their producer, Hiroshi Miyagawa, and such songwriters as Koichi Sugiyama and Rei Nakanishi.
They were the first to perform "Koi no Vacance". Later, the twins embarked on a brief acting career, notably in the 1961 film Mothra, the 1964 film Mothra vs. Godzilla and the 1964 film Ghidorah, the Three-Headed Monster. In the audio commentary for the DVD of Mothra vs. Godzilla, it is noted that director Ishiro Honda fondly recalled the Itos' professionalism. Though not primarily actresses by trade, they were surprisingly skilled, learned their lines quickly, and always worked on time, despite their own busy schedules
