The Party AUDIO STACK (The Party) is the 20th album by Japanese jazz fusion band Casiopea. In addition, the video was released simultaneously as The Party VISUAL STACK on June 25, 1990 with LaserDisc and VHS. Also, when we sent the application tickets attached to "AUDIO STACK" and "VISUAL STACK", we got The Party EXTRA STACK (VHS LPR-017) by lottery. This album marked the joining of Yoshihiro Naruse (bass) and Masaaki Hiyama (drums) to the band. This is also Casiopea's 20th overall album.
