This is a recording, lost for many years, of LRD at OZ in 1972.
The frantic, slightly unhinged guitar playing, the wonderfully lethargic rhythm section, and the blues-inflected Japanese vocals, creates a truly alien experience.
Amongst the dirge and chaos, there are also true gems like “Memory is Far Away”, a moment of sensitivity and reflection. All the better for being in a completely foreign-to-me, language.
Along with Fishmans, and the late, truly great Ryuici Sakamoto, these are my new Japanese Heroes.

commentsTo commerate Richard’s birthday, we shared some celebratory songs, raised (and lowered) the temperature, and finished the night off with cheese and cake.
