Akina Nakamori Complete Discography (Mini-Albums / Eps)
Aside from her over 20 studio albums, 20 best albums and boxsets, and countless cover albums, Akina Nakamori also has six mini-albums, some little known, under her belt. They range from mini-compilations to EPs with all new tracks. Her most famous one is perhaps "VAMP", the one that gave credence to her nickname as the Vamp of J-pop. Other special minis include "CD'87", which is the only album to find some of her late 80's singles and their B-sides, and "WONDER", which includes "normal" versions of the tracks from her experimental album "Fushigi". Below are tracklistings, chart information, and of course, English translations of the tracks.
