Another lost gem for lovers of Japanese psych and hard
rock, this time from the inspirational '70s prog outfit,
Strawberry Path
From its extremely cool front cover to the last track, this
is an album that will appeal to garage fans, psych heads,
mondo music lovers and acid freaks alike, merging as it
does a variety of Western influences, ranging from Jimi
Hendrix (check out Shigeru Narumo's hard psych guitar)
to Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin and Deep Purple
Originally relased in 1971, Strawberry Path were the
forerunners of Japanese Flied Egg, one of the most
influential Japanese prog bands to emerge in the '70s.
This is hard psych rock at its best, and an album which
has soared in value over the last few years. Highly
collectable and highly listenable Track listing: 1. I Gotta See My Gypsy Woman
2. Woman Called Yellow "Z"
3. The Second Fate
4. Five More Pennies
5. Maximum Speed Of Moji Bird
6. Leave Me Woman
7. Mary Janes On My Mind
8. Spherical Illusion
9. When The Raven Has Come To
The Earth
