This is exciting news. Wal-Mart is the largest retailer in the U.S. and operates 
over 3,800 stores and discount membership clubs. The company also operates
more than 1,100 units in Argentina, Brazil, Canada, China, Germany, Korea,
Mexico, Puerto Rico and the United Kingdom. If you can buy Seiko at Wal-Mart,
her sales number would definitely rank better than her previous U.S. release.
I wonder if the debut of Area 62 can use a big push from MTV and VH-1 as well.
 
At this moment, I cannot find more info from other retailers including Target,
KMart, Best Buy, book chains or other music stores. All I can tell you is that the
distribution is key and Wal-Mart is a win-win situation for Seiko. 

You can preorder the new album from Walmart at:

P.S. What do you think of Seiko's hair-do from Area 62 album?
13 tracks with 2 Japanese songs. I can't wait to hear the critics in the U.S. talk
about Seiko's Ave Maria version.
