DESCRIPTION

  • 1xLP pressed on Clear Green Vinyl
  • Include the classics ā€œLeft Handed Womanā€ and ā€œTake It Easy Mr King Kongā€
  • Backed by a powerhouse rhythm section consisting of drummer Shuichi ā€œPontaā€ Murakami and bassist Ray Ohara

Two years after Introducing, this 1977 release—the second installment in Toshiba EMI’s acclaimed ā€œPro Use Seriesā€ā€”returns on clear green vinyl.

Joining the returning rhythm section of Shuichi ā€œPontaā€ Murakami (drums) and Ray Ohara (bass), percussionist Nobu Saito and others further strengthen the album’s rhythmic foundation. Highlights include the classic ā€œLeft Handed Womanā€, where Jun Fukamachi explores new possibilities for the analog synthesizer while engaging in electrifying solo exchanges with the song’s composer, Kenji Ohmura, as well as ā€œTake It Easy Mr King Kongā€, which makes inventive use of a talk box.

More accessible, more thrilling, and even more refined than its predecessor, this album stands as a superb showcase of Fukamachi’s evolving musical vision.
