Some words about this issue: FUMIO & OSAMU: “Shinchuugoku” (Atlantic – L-6063A) Bloody rare and much in demand copy of this hardly ever offered LP. Post Far Out and pre- Far East Family band psychedelic oozer by Fumio and Osamu. Released on August 25, 1972, “Shinchuugoku” lies also stylistically right and smack in the middle between Far Out, the “Mio & 11 Pikki no Neko” album and The Far East Family Band, meandering between a hippy laid back vibe and some molten psychedelic riffage. Fumio Miyashita (former Far Out) and Kitajima Osamu (Justin Heatcliff) get on this venture backed by some heavy scenesters such as Ishikawa Kei (Far Out), Arai Manami (Far Out), Sayu Eiichi (former Zunokeisatsu and Far Out), the Flower Travelling band’s Joe Yamanaka (chorus) and Yuki, the PA engineer of Far Out. So basically, for the recording of this album, the whole Far Out line up is present with some additional guests. Together the collective is responsible of creating and spellbinding beautiful album that embraces lush, childlike and dreamy folk moves but with disquiet seeping in at its edges, intertwines it with freely floating fractured Eastern sounding skirling guitar lines and riffing, injecting at times venom into the songs melodic themes. Most of the time, it is just an hypnotic listening affair, sucking you back and putting you an a kind of mesmerizing laid back state. This folk spiked with psychedelics and converting the whole package into a vehicle for musical levitation. Some of the acidic guitar licks transform the songs hayseed simplicity into a vibrant mixture of Oriental mysticism and hazy hash induced catatonics. Just love and sucking you in deeper and deeper with each successive session. Highest recommendation

New to the e-bay game but long experience in selling records so bid with confidence.

Excellent: record has hardly no visible defects and is preserved with care and attention, the condition most collectors take pride in to file away. Near Mint: a dash below mint, just perfect. Mint: like new.
