Yasuaki Shimizu - Kakashi

Belated post

I had this record in my mind's eye all week to dig out for my weekend coffee and tunes. Sometimes that happens. An album just pops in my head and I have to scratch the itch.

Released in 1982 Japan it wasn't until 2017 this got a repress. It's hard to describe. Combo of jazz and electronics. A bit Enoish at points.

Yasuaki plays a huge stack of instruments on the album and as you go through the list we get to charango (i had to look that up), toys and "noises".

The title track is in my permanent collection of favourites.

This is the 2017 repress out on Swiss label We Release Whatever the Fuck We Want Records - an excellent label. Unfortunately, the repress didn't come with an obi which was an odd decision.
