(FRA / NATO / NATO 469 / 1985 / MEDIA:EX- / JACKET:EX-)
エキゾ・アヴァン・ポップ名作！FRANK CHICKENSのカズコ・ホーキ(法貴和子)も在籍するNATO人脈結集ユニット！
アヴァン・ジャズ方面からLOUIS PHILIPPE、JAH WOBBLE作品などにも参加する尺八奏者CLIVE BELLを中心として、「WE ARE NINJA」でお馴染みなFRANK CHICKENSのカズコ・ホーキ(法貴和子)、PETER CUSACK、MAX EASTLEY、STEVE NOBLE、DAVID HOLMES、SIANED JONES、STUART JONES、ALAN TOMLINSONら濃すぎる演奏家で構成された異端音楽集団のファースト・アルバム。一曲目から「東京音頭」のカヴァーで幕開けするという痛快ぶりで、プログレ、エクスペリメンタル、ユーロ・ジャズ、ラテン、演歌、民族音楽といった多様な音楽要素がひしめき合う無国籍志向＋ジャンル横断的エキゾ・アヴァン・ポップが楽しめます。大推薦盤！
