In 1977, keyboardist Minoru Mukaiya and drummer Takashi Sasaki joined the group. The group debuted with the album Casiopea in 1979, and 30 albums or more have since been released. In 1980, the drummer seat is replaced by 神保彰/Akira Jimbo.
The album Eyes of the Mind was released in the United States in 1981. They then released the album Mint Jams in 1982, followed by Four by Four in the same year, which is a collaborative album with some of Fourplay members including Lee Ritenour, Harvey Mason, Nathan East and Don Grusin. Their first foreign concert was held in the United Kingdom in 1983. The group has toured Europe, South America, Australia, and Southeast Asia.
In 1989, 神保彰/Akira Jimbo and Tetsuo Sakurai left the band following several years of musical differences. They named their own band, Jimsaku. For the replacement, the group chose Yoshihiro Naruse (bass) and Masaaki Hiyama (drums).
In 1993, the group once again change its members. Noriaki Kumagai came to replace Masaaki. Then from 1997 神保彰/Akira Jimbo returned to Casiopea, this time as a part-time member, recording more albums and again contributing some of the compositions.
In 2006, Issei Noro, the group's leader, decided to freeze all activities of the band until further notice.
On April 20, 2012, it was announced that Casiopea would return with Kiyomi Otaka on keyboards, replacing Minoru Mukaiya, who led his own music production team Mukaiya Club. This iteration is known as Casiopea 3rd.
During the 2010 decade Casiopea 3rd resumed album releases, and both Casiopea 3rd and Inspirits held a joint concert as a result of having a common bandleader in Issei Noro.
During the Covid-19 crisis, Issei Noro released a song thanking all those on the frontlines.

These are what I think are the lyrics:
時は過ぎ
気が付けば
何時か見た
この世界
揺れている
君の影
忘れない
何時までも
優しさと
切なさに
満ちていた
君の事
僕の目に
映るのは
生きている
思い出と
果てしない
夢の丘
toki wa sugi
ki ga tsukeba
itsuka mita
kono sekai
yureteiru
kimi no kage
wasurenai
itsu made mo
yasashisa to
setsunasa ni
michiteita
kimi no koto
boku no me ni
utsuru no wa
ikiteiru
omoide to
hateshinai
yume no oka
時は過ぎ、気が付けば、何時か見たこの世界揺れている、君の影。
toki wa sugi ki ga tsukeba itsuka mita kono sekai yureteiru kimi no kage
Time had passed, and before I realized it, this world that I had saw one day was your swaying shadow.
忘れない、何時までも優しさと切なさに満ちていた、君の事。
wasurenai itsu made mo yasashisa to setsunasa ni michiteita kimi no koto
I will not forget you, who was always full with kindness and sadness.
僕の目に映るのは生きている思い出と果てしない夢の丘。
boku no me ni utsuru no wa ikiteiru omoide to hateshinai yume no oka
What is reflecting in my eyes are living memories and an endless hill of dreams.
@allenguy1st
okiwasugi (too much)
kigatsukeba (before I noticed)
itsu kage ga (when your shadow)
kono sekai (about this world)
jumeteiru (I dream)
kimi no dake (only you)
wasurenai (do not forget)

PS they sing in a very specific way so the translation probably isn't 100% accurate,
but it's the best we can do for now :D
