With popular demand and critical appreciation for Yokota's work at an all time high, The Leaf Label imported a limited number of copies of Leaf Compilation, Yokota's first ever mix CD. Released own Yokota's own Skintone label, from which Leaf licensed his other album releases, it was the first time Leaf tracks were made available domestically in Japan.
Leaf Compilation comprises 25 tracks lifted exclusively from The Leaf Label's back catalogue, including a few otherwise unreleased cuts, personally chosen and arranged by Yokota himself.
This not actually an official Leaf Label UK release, it's a Japanese import and we don't have any left!
