Maki Asakawa's second album, released in 1971 and widely regarded as one of her essential early works.
Featuring an outstanding lineup of Japanese jazz musicians including Masaru Imada, Hiroshi Tsunoda, Shigeru Narumo, and Sadanori Nakamure. The album moves freely between jazz, blues, folk, psychedelic rock, gospel, and Indian-influenced sounds.
Highlights include the groovy brass-rock "Watashi ga Shoufu ni Natta Nara," psychedelic "Mekura Bana," the mysterious raga-inspired "Govinda," and a powerful rendition of "House of the Rising Sun." A deep and highly distinctive Japanese underground classic. |
