Toshio Saeki's music covers

三上寛怨歌集 - "ひらく夢などあるじゃなし", 1972.
GARLIC BOYS - "ロマン", 2001. 三上寛, - "船頭小唄 / 三上寛えん歌の世界", 1973. 三上寛 - "コンサートライヴ零孤徒", 1972.
GARLIC BOYS - "十(ten)", 2004. GARLIC BOYS - "マッシュルームカットとダッフルコート", 2000.
三上寛 - "三上寛の世界", 1971.
三上寛 - "BANG!", 1974. Back and front.

三上寛 - "夢は夜ひらく"
Mikami Kan - "Yume wa Yoru Hikaru
