Toki no Nai Hotel

Toki no Nai Hotel is the ninth studio album by Japanese singer-songwriter Yumi Matsutoya, released in June 1980.
Pictures featured on the back and front sleeve art were taken at the Brown's Hotel in London. No songs were released as a single except "Tamerai", which first appeared as a B-side of the non-album track "Daydream", released in May 1980.
Like other studio albums which came out after she remained with EMI in 1977 when Alfa finally started operating as a record label, Toki no Nai Hotel was released on CD for the first time in 1985. The album was reissued in 1999, digitally remastered by Bernie Grundman.
