Album — Sonny Boy Model
The Sonny Boy Model Album
- Sonny Boy Williamson II: vocals, harmonica
- Eddie Cleve: guitar
- Fred Marston: bass
- Bobby Thompson: drums
- Intimacy and distance: Many songs explore the tension between closeness and emotional withdrawal, using domestic imagery and small moments to fetch larger truths.
- Reinvention: Repeated motifs of masks, models, and façades suggest self-scrutiny and the artist’s desire to be both observed and reimagined.
- Tender melancholy: Lyrics favor concrete, everyday details that land emotionally — a hallmark of Sonny Boy’s strongest writing.
- A standout track that mixes romantic tension with surrealism. It captures the confusing romantic subplots and the "spark" of adolescence.

The album contains the raw "first drafts" of the main cast: Nagara, Nozomi, Mizuho, and the mysterious Asakaze. Unlike polished promotional art, these sketches show erased pencil lines, height comparisons, and three-dimensional turnarounds. It offers a rare peek into how animators maintain consistency while the world around the characters literally breaks apart.
