RELEASE DESCRIPTION
RELEASE DESCRIPTION
Presented here is Happy End's eponymous third album which was originally released in 1973 on Bellwood Records.
Happy End was a Japanese folk rock band, which existed between 1970 and 1973. The band's pioneering avant-garde sound is highly revered, and they are considered to be one of the most influential bands in Japanese music. In fact, Happy End is listed at number 4 in HMV Japan's list of the top 100 Japanese popular artists of all time! Happy End was formed by ex-Apryl Fool's Haruomi Hosono and Takashi Matsumoto and after its demise, Hosono went on to form the Yellow Magic Orchestra. Unlike most contemporary Japanese bands of the time, Happy End also refused to sweeten their albums with scatterings of Western rock covers, even presenting their songs in the Japanese language. Happy End's music is most reminiscent of soft rock such as 'Wheatfield Soul' period Guess Who, a slightly heavier CSN&Y, and Badfinger.

I got this for my husband as a gift and he really loved it. Great sound and beautiful color. I’m so glad I got this vinyl.

Beautiful vinyl. Good price. Came packaged well.

Really happy with the vinyl box set. It was sent quickly, well packaged and made it to Australia unscathed 😊

Came exactly as described and in perfect condition, the best shipment service on vinyls I’ve ever had. Fast and accurate, I’ve had records ordered for almost a month with another store and these guys continually beat out all other stores for shipment. I just ordered again from them, highly recommend.

The album arrived well packaged, in impeccable condition. Love the service. Love this album!

Great shop, I can only recommend it.

I finally received it. It came well packaged and secure. The customer assistance was great and helpful with my queries.

honestly i was very happy to have this poster come in, and imma buy a frame for it later. the poster is really beautiful and i love it, there was a slight defect to it, no fault to the company, but the mailing service itself, but it doesnt really bother me at all since it’s barely noticeable, i am just so happy to own it!!

Beautiful packaging and lovely sonic excursions abound from this vinyl. Thank you !̦ Helix.

Excellent album. I had never purchased from this vendor before and I was initially leary (this album is sold out on bandcamp and Materia Collective's site, and I'd never heard of Helix). But the album arrived quickly and was packaged very securely. I wish the "gold swirl" was a touch more apparent but I understand that each record will look different. Wonderful release from Rozen overall.

Great album that been on list for a while,had to grab for this great price! And shipping was pretty fast as well ,will definitely recommend and shop again.🙏🏽
