Our dear friends over at Wewantsounds continue their tear of incredible reissues by reviving an absolute psychedelic funk monster album by Yoshiko Sai. From the Bandcamp site:
“Wewantsounds is delighted to continue its Yoshiko Sai reissue program with the release of “Mikkou”, the Japanese singer-songwriter’s 2nd album released in 1976 on Black Records. The album, produced by ace arranger Isamu Haruna, keeps the same formula as “Mangekyou” with Yoshiko Sai’s beautiful songs and dreamy vocals over cool funky arrangements, this time featuring legendary guitarist Masayoshi Takanaka. This is the first time “Mikkou” is widely available outside of Japan, with remastered audio, original artwork and a 4 page insert including new liner notes by Hashim Kotaro Bharoocha who interviewed Yoshiko Sai for this special occasion.”
Yet another stunner from one of my favorite record imprints! This is available on vinyl and CD.
